I’m sharing step-by-step instructions on how to make a classic red velvet cake! It is perfectly soft and moist and so easy to make. The cake batter can be made in 5 - 10 minutes! Enjoy it on any occasion, such as Mother’s Day, Valentine’s Day, Holidays, or just for you & your family as a special treat❤️
📌 Ingredients To Make Red Velvet Cake
(for 1 8-inch cake or 24 cupcakes)
Cake Batter
• All-purpose flour: 280 g (2 1/4 US cups)
• Baking soda: 1 tsp
• Baking powder: 1 tsp
• Salt: 1 tsp
• Cocoa powder: 13 g (2 Tbsp)
• Granulated sugar: 350 g (1 3/4 US cups)
• Egg: 100 g (2 eggs)
• Oil: 172 g (3/4 US cup)
• Milk: 120 g (1/2 US cup)
• White vinegar: 30 g (2 Tbsp)
• Vanilla extract: 10g (2 tsp)
• Gel paste red food coloring: 2 tsp * Adjust the amount as you like.
• Milk (hot): 240 g (1 US cup)
• Unsalted butter (melted): 56 g (1/2 US stick)
- 2 8-inch pans: Bake (Preheated) at 330ºF (165ºC) for 35 - 40 minutes until the top bounces back gently and a toothpick comes off clean with a few crumbs when inserting it into the middle.
- 12 Cupcakes (half batch): Bake (Preheated) at 330ºF (165ºC) for 15 - 20 minutes
* Adjust the baking time and temperature accordingly.
* Try not to open the oven door frequently while baking them.
Cream Cheese Frosting
• Butter: 225 g | 8 oz (2 US sticks) *Use 450 g (4 US sticks) of butter if you want a little bit stiffer frosting. I only used 2 sticks today.
• Powdered sugar: 500 g (4 US cups)
• Salt: 1/4 tsp
• Cream cheese: 450 g | 16 oz (2 US blocks)
• Vanilla extract: 1 - 2 tsp (Optional. I did not add it today.)

Dear Aya, you will not believe this, but I have already baked cupcakes by this recipe. My friend wanted me to bake two batches - one chocolate and one of my choice. I finished chocolate and saw your video and decided to try. They look and smell great, It is a pity that I will not try them :). Thanks for your work. As you see, I trust your recipies :).

I just made this cake but in a mini loaf pan. I forgot to add sugar as guests came over at last minute and the sugar lay forgotten on the side 😬😬. When i mixed the wet with the dry ingredients, i knew I've done sthg wrong but couldn't tell what. It was only after the cake's been in the oven for 4 minutes that i noticed the sugar on the countertop. By then the sides had already set 😢. I let them bake with the intention of making it all over again tomorrow . For some reason, the mini loaves came out looking PERRRRFECT. IT HAD THE PERFECT CRACKS ON ALL OF THEM 🥰🥰. I wonder if they'll have them with the sugar too 😂. But hats off to Aaya for the perfect recipe. I'll make an update tomorrow.

I will definitely bake this, one thing that really appeals to me is that the butter is melted together with the milk! I don't do well with creaming method, but this oil based plus melted butter method, I just loveeee 😍 Made your banana & chocolate banana cake and it's a staple in my house, killer recipe! Thank you for all your hard work even with a baby on the way! 🎉😍 Please don't stop making rich sinful cakes!

If you use cake strips, available from Wilton or Amazon, the layers will not have a dome. Your cream cheese recipe works because you add the sugar to the butter before adding the cream cheese. Most recipes combine the butter and cream cheese before adding sugar, but it is sometimes a bit runny that way.

@belindagarrido1511 Ай бұрын

Yay! Been waiting for this, thank you. 💜 Looks luscious and beautiful. I’m eager to try it. Question: I live in humid tropical weather so what kind of frosting is best to use for this cake that would not melt easily? A frosting not made with butter? 🤔

@PastryLivingwithAya Ай бұрын

Great! If you want to leave the cake outside, I wouldn't do any buttercream or whipped cream based frosting. Most of cake frostings get looser under warm weather unfortunately. You can leave it in a room if it's cooling or store it in the fridge until right before serving (I recommend it the most!). I also recommend using cream cheese frosting to enjoy the classic taste; you may want to try Swiss buttercream + cream cheese, which should do a little bit better in a warmer enviroment.

I made this red velvet cake in a standard aluminum tray to try out the recipe and I highly recommend it. It’s soft, light and moist. It isn’t overly greasy and I just love how easy it was to make. I never knew about the hot milk to oil based recipes technique and I was pleasantly surprised. God bless you and thank you for such a great recipe. I pray the Lord Jesus Christ blesses you with a safe labor and delivery! Congratulations
