Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 cups sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 1/4 cups sifted cake flour
  • 1 tsp table salt
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 2 (1 oz) bottles red food coloring
  • 1 (16 oz) box powdered sugar
  • 1 (8 oz) package cream cheese, softened
  • 1 tsp vanilla

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Cream sugar and oil.
  3. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each.
  4. Sift flour three times (re-measure flour to get 2 1/4 cups after sifting - flour seems to grow after it's been sifted); add salt and baking soda to dry mixture.
  5. Add 1/4 of flour and 1/4 of buttermilk to mixture. Beat well.
  6. Repeat until all is incorporated.
  7. Add vanilla and vinegar; beat well.
  8. Slowly add food coloring, stirring by hand until well mixed.
  9. Pour into three greased and floured (or just use the cooking spray designed for baking) 8-inch pans.
  10. Bake 21-25 minutes, or until sides begin to pull away from pan; cool thoroughly on wire rack.
  11. For frosting: cream together the margarine and cream cheese.
  12. Gradually add the box of powdered sugar.
  13. Add vanilla and mix well.
  14. Spread evenly over cooled cake layers.
  15. NOTE: This amount of frosting is a little sparse for me. I usually make an additional half batch to frost the cake. Hope you enjoy!
