RED VELVET SHEET CAKE
Steps:
- For the cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 9-by-13-inch baking pan with baking spray.
- Whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl and set aside. In a small bowl, stir together the buttermilk, food coloring, vanilla and vinegar and set aside. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, or using a hand mixer and a large bowl, beat the oil, butter and granulated sugar on high speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add the eggs, one at time, beating well after each addition. Scrape the bottom of the bowl with a rubber spatula and briefly beat again to ensure everything is combined.
- Alternate adding the flour mixture and the buttermilk mixture in three parts and beat just until everything is combined. Pour the batter into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly and into the corners using a large offset spatula or knife. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Cool completely in the pan, about 35 minutes.
- For the frosting: Meanwhile, in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, or using a hand mixer and a large bowl, beat the butter and salt on high speed for 1 minute. Add the cream cheese and beat until combined and fluffy, about 1 minute. With the mixer on medium speed, beat in the confectioners' sugar in 3 additions until combined. Beat in the vanilla until combined. If the frosting is too stiff, beat in the heavy cream, as needed.
- When cake is completely cool, spread the frosting evenly over the top using a large offset spatula or knife. Sprinkle with the pecans, if you like.
THE ORIGINAL RED VELVET CAKE
My Grandmother, Lillie Carbeau Blanchard, brought this recipe to our family from her Louisiana home in 1957. It was an instant favorite and in demand for birthdays each year. It has been a tradition in our home and I hope you enjoy it as much as we have. When I make the icing, I blend the flour into the milk with the mixer first, then I cook it on a medium heat to begin with, constantly stirring to avoid lumps, increasing the heat along the way. Make sure you stir the sides and bottom of the pan. Let the stiff mixture cool to room temperature before you blend in the sugar, butter and vanilla. I double the icing recipe. as it is not too sweet and our family loves it! Also - I cool the layers in the refrigerator overnight then I spilt the layers, making this more like a "torte" than a regular cake.

CLASSIC RED VELVET CAKE
The "red" makes sense, but what about the "velvet" in Red Velvet Cake's iconic name? Food historians say it was a common description during the Victorian era when the term described cakes that had an especially soft and "velvety" crumb. From the color to the crumb, this homemade Red Velvet Cake is a dessert classic. If you prefer cupcakes over cakes, our Classic Red Velvet Cake recipe works perfectly for that - check out our "Expert Tips" section for guidance.

RED-VELVET SHEET CAKE
With less food coloring than traditional recipes call for, this red velvet looks more like an elegant mauve velvet; the balance of cocoa powder, butter, sugar, eggs, and sour cream gives it an almost fudgy flavor. Swoops of tangy cream-cheese frosting offset the cake's richness, as well as its striking hue.

Steps:
- Cake: Preheat oven to 350°F. Brush a 9-by-13-inch or 8-by-12-inch baking pan with butter. Line with parchment, leaving a 2-inch overhang on long sides. Butter parchment.
- Whisk together flour, cocoa, baking powder, and salt. Combine eggs and granulated sugar in the bowl of a mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Beat on high speed until thick and pale, about 4 minutes. Add flour mixture; beat just to combine. Add butter, food coloring, and vanilla; beat to combine. Add sour cream; beat until smooth.
- Scrape batter into prepared pan, smoothing top with a spatula. Bake until top springs back when lightly touched and a tester inserted in center comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes (for 9-by-13-inch) or about 40 minutes (for 8-by-12).
- Let cool in pan on a wire rack 10 minutes. Using parchment overhangs, lift out of pan; let cool completely on rack. (Cake can be made to this point and stored at room temperature, wrapped in plastic, up to 1 day.)
- Frosting: Beat together cream cheese, butter, and confectioners' sugar on medium-high speed until smooth and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Beat in vanilla. Spread frosting over cake.
