    This is the BEST red velvet cake and icing recipe I’ve tried, and I’ve tried MANY!!! I have baked this only twice so far, but it will now ALWAYS be my FIRST choice whenever I am in the mood to bake a cake. Delicious, super moist, just the right texture, and the icing is the PERFECT consistency and sweetness level. Thank you so much Alexus, you have permanently ENDED my search for the best red velvet cake on earth since it just can’t get any better than this. Super easy instructions, very FAST cake.

    This recipe was excellent. I tried the Preppy Kitchen recipe of John Kennel and it was awful and dense.
    This one was moist and soft. Highly recommend anyone who’s making a red velvet cake to make this. And it’s so easy, doesn’t need a Stan mixer or creaming butter nonsense. Simply and delicious.
    I used regular all purpose flour, and vinegar + milk instead of butter milk, and added the additional vinegar as she did and it turned out fine.
    Thank you Alexus.

    I Just LOVE you. You do not GATEKEEP ANYTHING lol I've been baking for about a year and the comment you made about letting your cakes sit in the freezer for about an hour because it will make it easier to coat was the best tip I could receive yet! I normally would let my cakes cool then coat them but I can tell this will be a method I will use from here on out!

    I make red velvet cakes at Christmas for family & friends for Christmas gifts. I have used the same recipe for 40 years & mine is almost exactly as yours, but mine only calls for 1 cup buttermilk. I just want to be sure you use 2 (two) cups buttermilk. I wasted a lot of ingredients once using an online recipe with a typo. I love your frosting technique! It looks WONDERFUL!! I usually use nuts in my frosting, but I'm going to leave out the nuts & pipe it on. I may sprinkle some chopped nuts on top. I will start making my layers in November & freeze them & take them out as I need them. I already have my boxes that they'll be in & wrapped with beautiful ribbons & bows.

      Mary is your recipe from the years of 1969 to 1972 time? I made for years this favorite recipe of a Red Velvet Cake and as without thinking family would misplace it, they did. It's been lost to me now for decades and I've always searched trying to find the version that was popular in Southern states in the winter of 1971. I know it took a full glass bottle of red food coloring ( 3 T. I believe that equaled to being). I believe it was 3 T. cocoa powder as well, 3 eggs. The eggs may have been only 2. 1½ cup of Wesson Oil and all the normal rest of the ingredients. If you or anyone reading my text has this particular recipe, I would dearly love to have it.

      Mary, does your recipe call for a certain brand of cooking oil? A name brand one? I had my recipe from Dec. of 1971. As it was, my mom had it, and I never got it back. I have tried to find this same exact one. It's lost to me. I hope you might have it. Thank you for your time.

      @Melissa A Melissa, the recipe I had from 1971, called for Self Rising, too, I believe. If not, at any rate, it is what was used. It was the best cake ever!
      Also, I believe Cake Flour is a lighter weight flour for making cakes. You are right in that Plain Flour is indeed All-Purpose Flour. Self Rising has the baking powder already in it. I can't remember if baking soda is in it, too or not.

    Was trying to get close to my mom's recipe. This one is the closest so far. If you are not doing the icing like hers you dont need to double that recipe. I added pecans when I iced the top🤗

      @@heyleenvlogzzz3415 Use what she has listed. She said she doubled the icing ingredients because she did the fancy stuff. I didnt do all that so I just used what she has listed under icing! Itsssssssss soooo good!

    I use this same recipe. It's the best and you did a great job. You're right it is so moist. My family and friends love when I make it. Good baking!
