- For preparing the cake:
- Preheat the oven to 350F.
- The ingredients are enough to make two 9-inch cakes or about 24 cupcakes; therefore, grease the cake tins accordingly.
- Mix the red food coloring with a little water (not more than 2 teaspoons).
- Add the cocoa powder and vanilla extract to the mix and blend well, then set aside.
- Now take a deep mixing bowl and add the butter and sugar into it. Beat well using a wooden spoon or an electric mixer.
- Break the eggs in the mix and keep on beating until the mix is well incorporated.
- Add the salt and mix some more.
- Reduce the speed of the mixer to medium, add ½ cup of buttermilk to the mix, and beat well.
- Now add the flour to the mix (one spoon at a time) and mix at a medium speed to get a smooth mix.
- Add the cocoa-red food coloring mix to the prepared batter and fold well so that the batter attains a very deep red color.
- Add the baking soda and white distilled vinegar to the mix and use a mixer to get a smooth batter of dropping consistency.
- Pour the batter in the cake pans or the cupcake tins (fill only ¾ of the cupcake tins as the cake will rise).
- Bake the cakes in the oven for 30-35 minutes (the cupcakes will only take about 20-25 minutes) until the tops are firm but they are still springy.
- Cool on a wire rack for about 15 minutes before cutting the cake to serve or using frosting on it.
- Another way to serve the cake is to sandwich a thick layer of frosting between two layers of cake.
