Comment préparer Amazing Red Velvet Cake With Frosting

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 8- or 9-inch round baking pans.
In a small bowl, combine 1 teaspoon baking soda and 1 tablespoon vinegar. Let fizz, then set aside.
In a large bowl, cream together 2 cups sugar and 1 cup shortening until light and fluffy.
Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 2 tablespoons cocoa powder mixed with 1-2 tablespoons red food coloring until a smooth paste forms.
In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 1/2 cups flour and 1 teaspoon salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with 1 cup buttermilk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
Stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and the vinegar-baking soda mixture.
Pour batter evenly into the prepared pans.
Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let cakes cool in pans for 10 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to cool completely.
**Frosting:** In a small saucepan, whisk together 1/2 cup milk and 1/4 cup flour until smooth. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until thickened. Remove from heat and let cool completely.
Once cool, stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
In a large bowl, beat 1 cup (2 sticks) softened butter until light and fluffy. Gradually beat in 8 ounces softened cream cheese until smooth.
Gradually add the cooled flour mixture to the butter-cream cheese mixture, beating until smooth and fluffy.
Frost the cooled cake layers and enjoy!
