Comment préparer Best Red Velvet Cake

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour three 9-inch round cake pans.
In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder, and 1 teaspoon salt.
In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 1 3/4 cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
Beat in 1/2 cup vegetable oil until well combined.
Add 4 large eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
In a small bowl, combine 1/4 cup red food coloring (or 1/4 cup beet juice + 2 tablespoons flour) and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the creamed mixture, alternating with 1 cup buttermilk (or yogurt mixed with 1/4 cup milk) in two additions, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
In a small dish, combine 1 teaspoon baking soda and 1 tablespoon white vinegar. Add to the batter with the mixer running on low speed. Beat until smooth.
Divide batter evenly among prepared pans.
Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. If using only two pans, bake for 50 minutes.
Let cakes cool in pans for 20 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Once completely cool, frost with your favorite cream cheese frosting (recipe suggestion below).
