Serves:12

Ingredients
• 2 cups all purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon of baking soda
• 1 teaspoon of baking powder
• 1 teaspoon of salt
• 2 Tablespoons unsweetened, cocoa powder
• 2 cups sugar
• 1 cup vegetable oil
• 2 eggs
• 1 cup buttermilk
• 2 teaspoon of vanilla extract
• 1-2 oz. red food coloring
• 1 teaspoon of white distilled vinegar
• ½ cup of prepared plain hot coffee (don’t skip this ingredient)

Instructions

2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, cocoa powder and salt. Set aside.
3. In a large bowl, combine the sugar and vegetable oil.
4. Mix in the eggs, buttermilk, vanilla and red food coloring until combined.
5. Stir in the coffee and white vinegar.
6. Combine the wet ingredients with the dry ingredients a little at time, mixing after each addition, just until combined.
7. Generously grease and flour two round, 9 inch cake pans with shortening and flour.
8. Pour the batter evenly into each pan.
9. Bake in the middle rack for 30-40 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Do not over bake as cake will continue to cook as it cools.
10. Let cool on a cooling rack until the pans are warm to the touch.
11. Slide a knife or offset spatula around the inside of the pans to loosen the cake from the pan.
12. Remove the cakes from the pan and let them cool.
13. Frost the cake with cream cheese frosting when the cakes have cooled completely.
Notes
~TIPS~ Be sure to not overbake! Check the cake at 30 minutes as some ovens run really hot. To bake cupcakes, bake for 18-20 minutes, checking at the 18 minute mark.

Recipe type:frosting
Serves:Frost 3 layer cake
Ingredients
• 2 (8 oz) packs cream cheese, softened
• ¼ cup milk, made need more
• 1 stick butter, softened
• 2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 4 cups powdered sugar
Instructions
1. Add softened cream cheese into large bowl.
2. Pour in milk, butter and vanilla extract.
3. Mix until well combined.
4. Pour in half of the powdered sugar.
5. Mix until combined.
6. Add the remaining powdered sugar.
7. Mix until smooth and fluffy.
8. Use a spatula to scrape down the side of the bowl if needed.
Notes
If the frosting is too thick, add in a few drops of milk (about ¼ teaspoon) at a time and stir after each addition. It doesn’t take much liquid to thin it out. If you add too much milk, you’ll have to add more powdered sugar to thicken it back up which will make it sweeter.
