RED VELVET CAKE RECIPE - NYT COOKING



Red Velvet Cake Recipe - NYT Cooking image

This is similar to the original recipe that began the red velvet craze. It was developed by the Adams Extract company in Gonzales, Tex. The original recipe, popularized in the 1940s, called for butter flavoring and shortening and is usually iced with boiled milk, or ermine, frosting.

Total Time 1 hours

Yield One 9-inch cake

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 cup/115 grams butter, at room temperature, plus 2 tablespoons to prepare pans
3 tablespoons/20 grams cocoa powder, divided
1 1/2 cups/300 grams granulated sugar
2 eggs
2 teaspoons/10 milliliters vanilla extract
2 tablespoons/30 milliliters red food coloring
1 teaspoon/6 grams salt
1 teaspoon/5 grams baking soda
2 1/2 cups/320 grams flour, sifted
1 cup/240 milliliters whole buttermilk
1 tablespoon/15 milliliters vinegar
Ermine icing (see recipe), or other fluffy white icing

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Prepare three 9-inch cake pans by buttering lightly and sprinkling with 1 tablespoon sifted cocoa powder, tapping pans to coat and discarding extra cocoa. (This recipe can also be made in 2 9-inch cake pans.)
  • Cream butter and sugar together. Add eggs one at a time and beat vigorously until each is incorporated. Mix in vanilla.
  • In a separate bowl, make a paste of the remaining 2 tablespoons cocoa and the food coloring. Blend into butter mixture.
  • Sift together remaining dry ingredients. Alternating in 2 batches each, add dry ingredients and buttermilk to the butter mixture. In the last batch of buttermilk, mix in the vinegar before adding to the batter. Mix until blended.
  • Divide batter among 3 pans and bake for about 20 to 25 minutes. Cool on a rack completely.
  • To assemble, remove 1 cake from its pan and place flat side down on a serving platter. Drop about 1 cup of icing onto cake and, using a flat spatula, spread evenly over top. Remove the second cake from its pan. Place flat side down on top of first layer. Use remaining frosting to cover top and sides of cake.

Total Time 2 hours 55 minutes

Prep Time 20 minutes

Cook Time 35 minutes

Yield 1 - 10 inch cake

Number Of Ingredients 15

½ cup shortening
1?½ cups white sugar
2 eggs
1 tablespoon cocoa powder
1 ounce red food coloring
2?¼ cups self-rising flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup buttermilk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ cup margarine
1 (16 ounce) package confectioners' sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ cup chopped walnuts

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour two 10 inch cake pans.
  • Beat the shortening and white sugar with an electric mixer in a large bowl until light and fluffy. The mixture should be noticeably lighter in color. Room-temperature eggs should be added one at a time, allowing each egg to blend into the shortening mixture before adding the next. Mix the cocoa and red food coloring in a separate bowl and stir into the shortening mixture. Combine the flour and salt. Pour in the flour mixture alternately with the buttermilk, mixing until just incorporated. Stir in vanilla extract. In another separate bowl, mix the vinegar and baking soda. Fold in the vinegar mixture while fizzing; mixing just enough to evenly combine. Pour the batter into prepared pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack before frosting.
  • To make frosting: Cream together margarine and confectioner's sugar, then add vanilla extract. Beat until light and fluffy. Frost cooled cake and sprinkle with walnuts.

The cake mixture should be bright red, it will get a little darker as it cooks. If it’s not as vivid as you’d like, add a touch more colouring. Pour the cake mixture evenly into the two tins, and bake for 25-30 mins, or until risen and a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean.

Red velvet cake can sometimes be dry, but these are nice and moist. The only thing I didn't care for was the fact that they're really not all that red; they're a reddish brown.
