Red Velvet Cake With Vanilla Cream Cheese Frosting Recipe



Ingredients 

 100g butter, softened
 3/4 cup caster sugar
 1 egg, lightly beaten
 1 teaspoon white vinegar
 1 teaspoon red food colouring
 1 cup self-raising flour
 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
 1/2 cup buttermilk
 Grated dark chocolate, to serve
Cream cheese frosting
 120g cream cheese, softened
 60g butter, softened
 1 teaspoon vanilla essence
 1 1/2 cups icing sugar mixture

Method

Preheat oven to 180C/160C fan-forced. Line 16 holes of 2 x 12-hole, 2 tablespoon-capacity flat-based pans with paper cases.

Using an electric mixer, beat butter and sugar for 3 to 4 minutes or until light and fluffy. Beat in egg, vinegar and food colouring until combined. Sift flour and cocoa powder over butter mixture. Add buttermilk. Fold until just combined.

Spoon mixture evenly between paper cases. Bake for 14 to 16 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the centre of 1 cake comes out clean. Stand cakes in pan for 5 minutes. Turn out onto a wire rack to cool.

Meanwhile, make Cream cheese frosting: Place cream cheese, butter and vanilla in a bowl. Using an electric mixer, beat until pale. Gradually add icing sugar mixture, beating until combined.
