Red Velvet Cake Recipe My Martha Stewart

I love this red velvet cake recipe because it also has a chocolate flavor in it and this recipe always turns out perfect. You can use cream cheese frosting with it or whipped cream. I used whipped cream for frosting and I made flowers with royal icing. If you want your cake to be even redder, increase the food coloring by one to three tablespoons. If you don’t have buttermilk then add 1tsp vinegar in 1 cup of milk and leave it for 10 minutes. Your buttermilk is ready.

  1. A Red Velvet Cake is not a chocolate cake. The only reason cocoa is added is to interact w/ the acidic ingredients to create a reddish hue. Ermine Buttercream is the preferred frosting, and the original authentic frosting for velvet cakes. It’s the most stable of the 6 classic buttercreams – American, Ermine, French, German, Swiss, and Italian – and the most delish. It’s used in the south for 2 reasons – 1. it’s the closest in texture to whipped cream. 2. It holds up the best in the southern heat. The Pioneer Woman uses an Ermine Buttercream on many of her cakes.
