Steps:
- Beat butter and sugar till very fluffy and add one egg at a time. Add red food coloring and vanilla. In another bowl combine dry ingredients. In another bowl combine buttermilk and vinegar. Lightly blend flour mixture and buttermilk mixture into butter and sugar mixture alternating starting and ending with flour mixture. You can use 2 9" pans or 3 8" pans. Bake in 350 degree oven. To check if done, press your finger in center of cake. It should leave a slight dent. You will think it needs to go a little more but take it out. Keep in pan for 20 minutes. It keeps cooking after it is out of the oven.
- For frosting heat milk and flour on the stove until you have a very thick paste. Cover with a piece of plastic wrap so that you don't get a skin on top. Cool to room temperature. Make sure it is cooled to room temperature before you go any further. Beat butter and margarine with sugar till well combined. Add vanilla and cooled flour and milk mixture and beat on high for a very long time till very fluffy. Frost cake and keep in refrigerator. Take out of refrigerator about 1/2 hour before you want to serve it.
- I usually make the milk and flour mixture for the frosting in the morning because it has to be cool before you can make the frosting.
AUNT MARILYN'S RED VELVET CAKE
I remember going to gatherings at the Ripley's and there would always be Aunt Marilyn's Red Velvet Cake. It always seemed to be the first to go and I'd never get a piece. Now, it's the first thing I put on my plate. I'm glad she shared it with me to put in our Family Reunion Cookbook.

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 350°F Grease and line with wax paper 2-9" cake pans ICING BASE (thickener): Cook over medium heat, 3 T all-purpose flour and 1 cup milk, stirring constantly until thickened. Set aside. As it cools, stir frequently.
- 2. CAKE: Mix together: 1/2 c shortening 1 1/2 c sugar 2 eggs 1 t salt 2 1/4 c cake flour 1 c buttermilk 1 t vanilla extract PASTE: 2 oz red food coloring 2 T cocoa powder Make paste of 2 and add to mixture
- 3. When all ingredients are mixed, add: 1 T white vinegar mixed with 1 t baking soda and fold into cake. DO NOT BEAT. Divide into 2 cake pans and bake 30-35 minutes.
- 4. When cakes are cooled, slice through layers and ice between, making a 4-layer cake. Ice sides and top and press chopped walnuts into sides, only. Keep cake cool.
- 5. ICING: Cream together, 1 lb. butter, 1 cup sugar, and 1 t vanilla extract. Beat thickener into sugar/butter mixture and whip until lite and fluffy.
- 6. Aunt Marilyn's Personal Notes: 1 cake recipe = 32 cupcakes A single icing recipe is sufficient For any red cakes I make, I increase the amount of icing by 1 1/2 times. NOTE: I have found that this icing recipe quantities is sufficient for a 4-layer cake. I don't know if what she wrote was the "increase 1 1/2 times" or the "single" icing recipe. ~Carolyn

Steps:
- Set a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat to 325 degrees F. Spray 2 (9-inch) round pans with nonstick spray, line the bottom of the pan with a parchment paper round, spray the parchment with nonstick spray, and set aside.
- Whisk the flours, cocoa, baking soda, and salt together in a bowl and set aside. Whisk the buttermilk, food coloring, vinegar, and vanilla together in a small bowl and set aside.
- Combine the brown sugar and butter in the bowl of a stand mixer with the paddle attachment and cream on medium speed until lightened in color, 2 minutes. Stop the mixer and scrape down the sides of the bowl with a spatula. Return the mixer to medium speed and slowly add the eggs and beat until they are fully incorporated.
- With the mixer on low, add the flour mixture in 3 installments, alternating with the buttermilk mixture, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Stop the mixer and scrape down the sides of the bowl between each installment. Mix on low speed until smooth, 30 to 45 seconds.
- Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans and bake until the cake springs back when pressed or reaches an internal temperature of 205 degrees F, 30 to 35 minutes.
- Cool in the pans on a rack for 10 minutes, and then remove the cake from the pans and cool completely, about 1 hour, before frosting.
- Combine the cream cheese and butter on medium speed, just until blended, in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Stop and scrape down the sides of the bowl. Add the vanilla and salt and beat until combined. With the speed on low, add the powdered sugar in 4 batches, beating until smooth between each addition. Refrigerate for 5 to 10 minutes before using.

Steps:
- Make the cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter three 9-inch-round cake pans and line the bottoms with parchment paper; butter the parchment and dust with flour.
- Sift the flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt into a large bowl. Whisk the granulated sugar and eggs in a separate large bowl until combined. Gradually stir in the vegetable oil. Add the flour mixture, alternating with the buttermilk, beginning and ending with the flour mixture, stirring well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla and red food coloring.
- Divide the batter evenly among the pans and bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 40 minutes. Cool the cakes in the pans for 10 minutes, then turn out onto racks to finish cooling; peel off the parchment.
- Make the frosting: Beat the cream cheese and butter in a large bowl with a mixer until creamy. Beat in the confectioners' sugar until the mixture is smooth. Beat in the vanilla and nuts, reserving 2 tablespoons nuts for garnish. (You can make the cakes and/or frosting up to 2 days ahead; wrap the cakes in plastic wrap and refrigerate the frosting.)
- Spread the frosting between the layers, on the side and on top of the cake. Garnish with the reserved pecans.
AUNT LOUISE'S RED VELVET CAKE
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Butter and flour three 9-inch round cake pans and line the bottoms with waxed or parchment paper. Butter and flour the paper. In a bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa, baking soda, and salt. Set aside. In a measuring cup, combine the buttermilk, vanilla extract, and vinegar. Set aside.
- To prepare the batter, in the bowl of a heavy-duty mixer fitted with the paddle, combine the oil and the sugar on medium speed. Add the eggs, one at a time, and mix well after each addition. With the mixer on low speed, add the food coloring. Add the flour mixture alternating with the buttermilk mixture, beginning and ending with flour, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed. Mix until just combined.
- To bake the layers, divide the batter among the prepared pans. Bake until firm and a toothpick inserted into the cakes comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes. Let the cakes cool in the pans on a rack for 5 minutes. Invert the cakes onto the rack to cool completely.
- Meanwhile, to prepare the frosting, in the bowl of a heavy-duty mixer fitted with the paddle, cream the cream cheese and butter on medium speed until smooth. Sift over the confectioners' sugar. Beat until light and fluffy. Beat in the vanilla. If too stiff, add the milk, 1 teaspoon at a time, to achieve the correct consistency.
- To assemble, place one layer on a cardboard cake round. Spread with frosting. Repeat with the remaining 2 layers, placing the final layer bottom-side up. Finish with the remaining frosting. Sprinkle over the pecans. Serve the cake immediately, or store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

- 1. Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350°F. Butter the insides of two 9-inch round cake pans. Line the bottoms with waxed paper rounds. Dust the pan sides with flour and tap out the excess flour.
- 2. In a bowl, sift the cake flour, baking soda and salt together. In a separate bowl, beat the butter and granulated sugar together with an electric mixer set on high speed, occasionally scraping down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula, until the mixture is pale and gritty (it won't get fluffy), about 3 minutes. One at a time, beat in the eggs, beating well after each addition, then add the vanilla. Reduce the mixer speed to low. In thirds, add the flour mixture, alternating with two equal additions of the buttermilk, scraping down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula as needed, and mix just until smooth.
- 3. Pour half of the batter into a medium bowl. Sift the cocoa powder into the batter (sifting keeps it from clumping) and stir it in. Tint this batter bright red with the food coloring. (The amount depends on your desired shade and the kind of coloring used. You will probably use only 2 drops of paste, slightly more gel, or 1 to 2 tablespoons liquid.)
