10yrs later….this is still the best Red Velvet recipe I’ve made💯🥰

8 years later...This still my favorite recipe 😋❤❤❤

I came to give thanks. I found you from a red velvet cake review, I made this today for a baby shower , the cake did not last long.Moist and filling is decadent . Just wow!!! Thank you sis for your genorosity with this recipe .

If you want to make buttermilk, take the milk and add about 1/2 to 1 tablespoon of vinegar. Let that sit for 5-10 minutes, and then you got your buttermilk. EDIT: It's been 6 yrs and I forgot I even commented this lmaooo but yes as some people say lemon juice works fine as well, but wow I'm shocked thx for the likes and comments, glad I can help y'all!

It is very moist. If only we can add photos! She’s my go-to when I want to bake ANYTHING and I absolutely love her spirit!

I made this cake today for Father's Day. I had most ingredients but bought a back-up boxed cake mix just in case I failed LOL. I did everything but used 1 Tbsp vinegar + 1 cup milk for buttermilk. And let me just say I didn't need that back-up cake. This cake came out PERFECTLY moist and so so good!! My dad thought so too! Please try it if you can! :DD

This is seriously the BEST red velvet cake ever. I cannot get enough of it and whenever I give it to family or friend, they absolutely fall in love!!! I've baked it twice and each time it just gets better and better. I can totally recommend this!

We don’t normally comment on many items on KZfaq. And we do watch tons of videos. My husband will be turning 70 this weekend and we will have been married for 50 years this June. Between my mom and me we have made him red velvet cakes forever because it’s always been his favorite. Just recently while watching KZfaq we stumbled across your cake. WOW!!😮 As we read the recipe and process I thought this seems much simpler than the recipe I used. And it sure is but the finished product is simply delicious. You have shared the best recipe ever. I saw where someone mentioned the coffee. Yes I believe that is one ingredient that makes a difference. I have used coffee in a chocolate cake recipe I make and it makes a huge difference. Well I did one thing different. I have a recipe for frosting that was used by an aunt of mine and I don’t know where it came from but I have not seen or heard of it anywhere. It’s made from crisco, flour, vanilla, milk, butter and sugar. Thanks so very much for sharing this delicious red velvet cake recipe. 0:31

This is hands down the best red velvet cake recipe I've tried. Everyone loved it. Super moist, melts in your mouth. When she says it's moist, she means MOIST. Good thing that the recipe warns you that the batter will be thin because I wasn't having much hope until the cake was finished. Very delicious 😋

This is literally THE best red velvet cake recipe. It turned out great the first time I made it a few years ago, and I've stayed faithful ever since. Love, love, love!

I made this cake for my daughters wedding and her 21st birthday...this is the best recipe ever the cake is super moist and delicious...even the caterer at the wedding commented on how good the cake was lol...thank you for the best Red Velvet cake recipe ever :-)

OMG!!! I made this cake for Thanksgiving! My first "from scratch" cake and it was a huge success. It was gone the next day. No longer will I have to beg and pay someone to make me my favorite cake; RED VELVET!!! HA!!! Chaka Can Cook;lol!

I have to say I’ve made lots of recipes using butter, they were all ok, but this one using oil is definitely much superior! The cake just melts in your mouth, it’s so light, moist and fluffy! Even after days in the refrigerator! This is now my go to recipe! When I don’t have coffee I just replace it with water with incredible results...thank you so much! 💙🥰☺️🌷

So I made this cake last week and oh my goodness. It is my new go to recipe for red velvet cake. It refrigerated so well and stayed moist the entire week and a half it took my family to finish it. Best part, I’m sharing the recipe with my daughter when she is old enough to bake on her own (she’s 9). Yummy. Oh and the cream cheese frosting recipe is easy and perfect!

Baked this the day before my baby’s birthday and served it at her party the following evening. Let me just say I’ve never seen a cake disappear so fast. Everyone said it tasted really good with the best frosting and it was so moist. It was sinfully delicious. The coffee really makes the coco powder taste so good. I might bake another one for Christmas

GIIIIIRRRRRRL!!! I made this cake and literally cried. I thought I messed it up. It was so MOIST that is was cracked in the middle kinda like meatloaf.umm yea. so I started crying because I followed the recipe to a T. I was too too thru. Theeeennnn, my husband came into the kitchen & was like,what's wrong? Yea, he heard me crying...I showed him the cake (without the frosting on it) & he was like it don't look too bad. Frost it up he said cause it's gonna crumble when we eat it. Wellllllll, baaaaaabyyy, let me tell you. It was THE BOMB. The BEST CAKE I HAVE EVER MADE!!! WE BOTH ATE IT ALL IN ONE NIGHT!! I made your frosting too. This cake was gone. He said it was the BEST VELVET cake he'd ever eaten. I was soooo happy. It's my first from scratch cake. Turned out a lil boo boo became perfect. It's now my main Holiday cake & every now & then cake. Idk what I did that it was sooooo cracked in the middle but it didn't matter because it was DELICIOUS!! THANK YOU soooo MUCH for sharing this recipe.....

My mom just baked this cake and the moisture and the taste... there is no way I will ever eat a box cake again 👌🏽👌🏽

This is the Best Red Velvet Cake recipe on the "Tube". Have tried others on You Tube but nothing compares to Divas Can Cook. Thanks Monique, girl you can can everything, you are the G.O.A.T.!

Just made this for Christmas. It was soooooo good! It’s so moist, even for days after! This is my go to recipe for red velvet.

OH MY GOD. I made this recipe for red velvet cupcakes today (used a butter cream cream cheese icing so it would pipe) and she is not lying when she says this cake is MOIST! It is so unbelievably delicious. I was initially worried about it tasting like vegetable oil from other comments (I just don’t like using a lot of oils) but I assure you it is fine! The cupcakes were soft, sweet, moist, and perfect. The coffee really did its thing. THANK YOU SO MUCH for posting this recipe!! THIS DIVA CAN COOK!

My favourite cakes ever: 1. Red velvet with cream cheese frosting 2. New York cheesecake 3. Banana cake

I made this recipe for the first time today and for my first time making red velvet cake...i made it for my coworkers and it was a huge hit!! They loved it!! I used decaf coffee since i don't do caffeine, and I used your recipe for your cream cheese frosting that you posted with your red velvet cupcakes. Rave reviews for the frosting! and i also took crumbles from the cake and sprinkled on top with some chopped pecans to make it look pretty lol. Thanks so much for your channel, you're the best!!

Let me just tell you this red velvet cake is the best red velvet cake in the universe. Baked it for my family and my 87 year old great grandmother said it was the best one she had ate in her entire life. Thank you so much. That coffee definitely does something to this cake, it was insanely moist. Merry Christmas & thank you again. God bless you.

I tried this recipe and it's the best velvet cake recipe! The cake was very moist and light. I followed all the exact measurement written here, except for I fold in the flour using figure 8 technique instead of beating it with mixer. I used the same batter for cupcakes but I baked at 20mins. It was perfect ! Thanks for sharing this recipe.

i tried this recipe and it was AMAZING! my whole family loved it and honestly it is way better than any of the one's in the bakeries

This is a great cake!! I'm not a big Red Velvet cake fan but I love this cake. It is the only Red Velvet cake I will eat. Since the first time I made this cake it has been requested at all our functions. It shouldn't matter but I'm a male and I enjoy cooking...and this cake increased my stock. Be careful, this cake is really moist and can be difficult to handle. Thanks DCC

To take this cake to another level use white chocolate cream cheese frosting! 1- 8oz. cream cheese, 11oz. of white chocolate bits(ghiradelli or private selection Kroger brand), 1 stick of butter softened, 3 T. confectioners sugar, 2 T. Lemon emulsion (hobby lobby baking isle). Boil 2-3 cups of water; remove from heat and place white chocolate in a stainless steel bowl and set on top of boiling pan rim( if you don't have a double boiler). Let it set there for 5-6 minutes before you start to stir it. Once the chips are completely melted and smooth take off pan and let it set for 1-2 minutes. While the water is boiling, cream together the cream cheese and sugar until well blended. Add the chocolate until blended the mound in softened butter; add the lemon emulsion. You may have to double the recipe to cover a 2-3 layer cake, but taste before you add more than 2T of emulsion. Enjoy!

Hello, I have just made this cake and it turned out soooooooooooo moist and when I went to turn it over to get out of the pan it stuck big time even after spraying the pans but I forgot one step I always do and didn't I put paper down in the pans so they don't stick also, so I am in the process of making the cake again with the spraying of the pans and then wax paper in the bottom of the pans and then sprayed again so I know they won't stick this time.. the cakes are in the oven again.. But this recipe is so moist like you said.. My husband said to frost the one that torn for us and I said ok but we can't stop eating it because it is so good.. Thank God I have enough ingredients to keep making this cake for my son's birthday.. He comes and gets it tomorrow.. thanks again for the recipe..

Hello i just tried your red velvet & cream cheese reciepe,wanna say..i ate 2 slices of it! its is so delicious.so yummyI I made this today for my son's 10th birthday 23.Jan 2015. and it was a hit for my swiss family.Something new for them... Thank you for sharing your reciepe.

This is literally the best red velvet cake recipe everrrrr!!!! Omg my family and friends loved it so much, didn't even last a day! Its so moist and delicious thank you thank youuuu!!!

I just made this for my small group today and let me tell you, it was absolutely incredible. I have never been a very successful baker and I must say this was absolutely the most moist cake ever. I cheated on the frosting for the sake of time, I just went to my local store and picked up some frosting that they make daily for their own cakes (Publix, located in their cold cake section). Another plus was that the cake was not overly sweet and didn't have that "homemade" taste, it honestly to me almost didn't need the frosting b/c the cake was so good. Thank you so much for sharing this with the world :-)

My daughter and I baked this for my husband for his Bday and it was the best cake ever! My first time baking a red velvet cake which is a household fave...will make again! Love your recipes and how quick and easy they are but always make for a great homemade taste!

i seriosly suck at baking , i just baked it then i remembered i didnt put any sugar in the cake 💔😐

I just used this recipe last night. This cake was sooooo moist and delicious! I was so excited that it came out perfectly! Thanks so much for this recipe! 😆🍰

Since I tried this recipe, I have never look at any other red velvet recipe. I love the texture and how moist and delicious this recipe is. Thanks for sharing this 💕

Grrrrrl...this cake came out so moist and delish! Thank you for posting this. It made my 2020 Thanksgiving feel like home even though I couldn't be with family. Just follow the directions as given including the coffee and you will have a perfect cake!

I’ve made this cake for my family a few times and it turns out great! It’s so moist! Thanks Diva!!

I’ve tried many red velvet cake recipes, but this is a winner! It’s soooooo moist and delicious really. And a plus...such an easy recipe to follow 👌🏽👌🏽😋😋

Dear Monique... Greetings all the way from Saudi Arabia I just had the last bite from my slice of this amazingly moist & insanely delicious red velvet cake.. with cream cheese frosting of course and white chocolate ganache.. I am literally speechless !! People I cannot describe enough how MOIST and flavorful this cake is.... my husband was surprised to know it was homemade... also I have tried a different recipe of red velvet cake based on butter but THIS ONE IS THE ONE TO GO with..... Thank you Monique and I just have to say this: your voice and the way you comment on your videos just takes it to a whole different level... it is such a joy watching your recipes .... love you..

I made this cake 3 times and it never disappoints, the only cake recipe that is moist and easy to make to me. Thank you very much!

The absolute best red velvet cake recipe. My 2 children gobbled the whole cake up on Thanksgiving it didn't make it to midnight.

This is the BEST red velvet cake ever . My family was blown away by this cake,thank you Diva.

Thanks for your recipe. I’ve made this cake several times and my family loves it. I just changed some ingredients, instead of oil, I used applesauce. I also reduced the sugar in half. I don’t use coloring so we call it brown velvet. It’s the best cake!

This recipe was soooooooo amazing. I used it for red velvet cupcakes, and believe me they were SO soft and awesome. I'm vegetarian that's why I left out the eggs and put 1/4th tsp more baking soda and my batter was little less sweet, so I put more sugar. And the outcome was just amazing.

Hey! Greetings from New Zealand, i just made your red velvet cake! it was gone in a day.......girl you need your own tv show! You certainly have a new fan..............THAT RED VELVET CAKE WAS OMG......SO GOOD.........I COULDNT BELIVE I MADE SOMETHING SO BEAUTFIUL IN MY LIFE...... NOM NOM NOM.......... THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE RECIPE.

Thank you so much for this recipe! I made it last Friday, and it was the best Red Velvet Cake I'd ever had! It was also my FIRST cake I ever made by myself! I'm making another one for Thanksgiving-actually, it's in the oven now! I hope you and your beautiful family have a great Thanksgiving! (I already know it's going to taste wonderful!)

I made this once so far and it was a HIT!! I was requested to make it again at the end of the month again. I doubled the recipe thinking I needed more but I didn't so I wrapped the cake in plastic wrap then wrapped aluminum foil around it as well as stored the leftover frosting in the freezer. I took it out about a week in a half later, thawed it out and it was like new so even after freezing, it's a perfect cake. Thank you!!

This is first time I am making this recipe , I must say I was surprise that it came out so moist and delicious I really did not need the frosting it was that good.. I did not have the buttermilk so I use vanilla coffee cream combine it with sour, I use 3/4cup cream and1/4 sour cream . this weekend I will be making two red velvet ..cakes... Thank you for sharing your recipes.. I would love to have your sister's lemon cake recipe... Thanks...

I tried this recipe today and it came out so well! The cake was super moist and tasty. Will definitely try out most of your recipes!! ❤

If you're thinking about making this cake, JUST DO IT!! It's super easy and I can't even describe how good it is!! You'll love it and that icing is perfect! Thanks for this!! ❤

My son requests this as his birthday cake every year. It's absolutely amazing. I also make it for Christmas as well. Everyone loves it and your recipe is perfection. Thank you!!!

Thank you for this recipe! My sister and I made this, and we used buttercream frosting and chocolate sauce for the outer of the cake. It was really delicious!

Just made this recipe on Saturday... THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU! This recipe was perfect and simple. My family really tore it up lol

OMGGG this cake is amaazing, super simple, and super moist like you said! I just made it and there's less than half left

My birthday is next week and I love to have my Red Velvet Cake. This one I want simply because of the coffee added. I've made a chocolate cake with coffee and it was so rich and moist so I'm excited to taste this Red Velvet recipe!!

Hi Divas Can Cook! I just want to say thank you for sharing this recipe with us. I am 16 and I made this cake for my parents for Valentine's day. It was really nice and very moist! My parents loved it so do I! Thank you, and please keep doing more Videos. Have a great day! Warmly, Shokhsanam.

Just made this and WILL be my goto red velvet cake I make for my family!

I made this cake today and I love how moist and delicious is , thanks for the recipe :)

We made 2 red velvet cakes yesterday using this recipe. AWESOME!!!!! Moist, fluffy and full of flavor

Amazing recipe. How am I just finding this channel? Made this for thanksgiving yesterday and the entire cake was GONE before i knew what was happening.!!!. Amazing recipe.

Best Red Velvet cake ever!!! It's so moist and delicious!

So tomorrow I will be serving this cake at a celebration for my daughter. I've just pulled them out of the oven. I say them because I've made a small high round & long/rectangular piece. I will say this it smells AWESOME & I tasted the left over in the bowl & OMG if it taste done the way it taste before ... IT'S GOING TO BE DEEEELISH... I will post results tomorrow. And yes ma'am it is MOIST. I'm not the best baker in the world but this was not hard to follow AT ALL. My daughter's favorite cake is Red Velvet & I wanted to put my touch on it & make it instead paying someone. This celebration is for strength & survival that she's made through a difficult & rare seizure disorder over the last 1 & a half. I won't make this any longer than it is but just know it's changed both of our lives. To see her progressing is a celebration in itself. Again I'll post tomorrow how it went.... Smooches 🤗

I made this Red Velvet Cake this weekend for my birthday...Jan 29th..and I must say it was DE-LISH-OUS! It was moist, not too sweet and just darn good! For the cream cheese frosting, I used an easy recipe I found on Pinterest. I didn't have any buttermilk, so I made my own. I used one tablespoon of distilled vinegar and one cup of milk. I let it sit for ten minutes and it was ready. My final thought: Please don't be afraid to make this cake. It's very simple and doesn't take long to make. I was afraid to tackle it because it seemed so intricate with all the little things that it requires...but it was soooo easy. I'm going to make another one on Valentine"s Day. Diva, you're the best! Thank you!

Just made this cake again today and instead of TollHouse Unsweetened Cocoa, I used Hershey's.. And oh my, what a difference, the chocolate flavor came out much better, as always, this cake is delicious and moist, rich in flavor!!

I tried this recipe in 2020 turned out amazing thank you♥️♥️

I made this for Thanksgiving this year and it was a complete hit! Everyone loved it and it was gone before I knew it :) I used a bundt cake pan and it was perfect.

I know it's been nearly 7 years since this recipe came out but I made it, and OMG this is the best one I've tried! I did forget to whisk the oil and sugar and added the sugar to the dry ingredients. But nonetheless this cake came out as Monique says AH-MAZING!! My oven doesn't show degrees so I baked it on Gas Mark 3 for 40-45 mins. For the cream cheese frosting I used the light cream cheese frosting recipe but instead of 3 cups icing sugar I used 2. Simply PERFECT. 👌 Thank you so much for sharing!

I made this cake for my sister's birthday and everyone LOVED it!!! 🤩 Even my nephew who is a chocolate lover and my aunt who doesn't really like sweets loved it! I didn't expect it to be such a succes! Thank you so much for this recipe!! 💖

Hello Diva Can Cook Followers. I totally enjoy learning from this woman. My family loves the Yellow Velvet cake and pound cake. I am a baker anyway, but she has the baker secrets from Grandma Barb. Keep on baking folks. I love it and I love the reaction from my family.

Thank you for this Recipe! My husband loved it so much! He ate three slices and took the rest to work for his workers. And since we live a bit higher elevation, some people shared some tips on your blog that helped so much! Thank you again!

My grandma had this trick where she would mix 1/2 teaspoons of baking soda and 1/2 teaspoons of Apple cider vinegar and it always made it taste very good :)

I come back to this recipe every year for the holidays! ❤️❤️❤️

You should try a recipe for this using beets and raspberries instead of food colouring

I have a question, is it possible to decorate it like the dripping chocolate cakes or something ? Do i have to put it in the fridge before ?

I made this cake Friday night. It's very flavorful and moist. This will go in my collection of recipes. Very delicious.

I made this today and it turned out just like the picture, extremely moist and just the right amount of sweet, everybody loved it ! Thanks for sharing, I always love all your recipes!

I love your recipes... 😍
