Red Velvet

Kali ini aku akan membahas tentang my all time favorite cake, yaitu Red Velvet! Yihaaa..

Red Velvet sendiri dinamakan karena cake nya berwarna merah pekat dan bertekstur sangat lembut

Warna merah dari Red Velvet berasal dari buah bit (beetroot), biasanya Red Velvet dipadu dengan cream cheese yang cocok banget satu dengan yang lainnya.

Selain cream cheese sebagai tambahan ternyata Red Velvet memiliki resep rasahia tersendiri yaitu campuran asam cuka yang sudah disuling, sehingga warna merah pada cake ini semakin menyala!

Red Velvet favorite aku adalah Red Velvet The Harvest, rasanya pas dan nggak terlalu manis, kebetulan aku nggak begitu suka manis. Talking about Red Velvet bener-bener bikin kepengen because I love it to the moon and never backkk!

Now, I want to share with all of you the recipe of lovely Red Velvet with chocolate, yess, chocolate! What could make traditional red velvet cake even better? Chocolate, of course! Check it out!

Red Velvet Chocolate Cake

INGREDIENTS:

Unsalted butter, for cake pans

2 1/2 cups cake flour, not self-rising

1 teaspoon salt

1/4 cup cocoa powder

1 1/2 cups sugar

1 1/2 cups canola oil

2 large eggs

1/4 cup red food coloring

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

1 cup buttermilk

1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda

2 teaspoons white vinegar

Seven-Minute Frosting

Cook's Note

If you want your cake to be even redder, increase the food coloring by one to three tablespoons.

DIRECTIONS:

STEP 1

Heat oven to 350 degrees. Generously butter two 9-by-2-inch round cake pans. Sprinkle with flour, and tap out the excess; set aside. In a medium bowl, whisk cake flour, salt, and cocoa; set aside.

STEP 2

In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine the sugar and oil, and beat on medium speed until well combined. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add food coloring and vanilla, and beat until well combined. Add flour mixture, alternating with buttermilk, scraping the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula as needed.

STEP 3

In a small bowl, mix baking soda and vinegar until combined. Add to batter, and beat for 10 seconds. Evenly divide batter between the prepared pans.

STEP 4

Bake until a cake tester inserted in the center of each cake comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool in the pans for 5 minutes. Remove from the pans, and return to the rack to cool completely.
