Comment préparer Grandmother Paul's Red Velvet Cake Paula Deen

  1. **Prep the Oven & Pans:** Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour three 8-inch round cake pans.
  2. **Cream Butter & Sugar:** In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 2 cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. **Add Eggs:** Beat in 4 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  4. **Combine Dry Ingredients:** In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon salt.
  5. **Alternate Wet & Dry:** 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.
  6. **Add Vinegar & Food Coloring:** In a small bowl, combine 1 tablespoon white vinegar with 1 teaspoon red food coloring. Add to the batter and mix until evenly colored.
  7. **Optional Applesauce:** Stir in ½ cup applesauce for extra moisture (optional).
  8. **Bake the Cakes:** Pour batter evenly into the prepared pans. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. **Cool & Frost:** Let cakes cool in pans for 10 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  10. **Make the Icing:** In a double boiler or heat-safe bowl set over simmering water, combine 2 large egg whites, 1 cup granulated sugar, ¼ cup water, and ¼ cup light corn syrup. Whisk constantly until sugar dissolves and mixture reaches 160°F (71°C).
  11. **Add Marshmallows:** Remove from heat and stir in 1 cup mini marshmallows (or 1 cup marshmallow creme) until completely melted and smooth.
  12. **Fold in Extras:** Gently fold in 1 cup sweetened shredded coconut and ½ cup chopped pecans.
  13. **Frost the Cake:** Once the cakes are completely cool, frost between the layers and on top and sides of the cake.
