Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 2.5 cups all-purpose flour sifted
- 1.5 cups granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon cocoa powder unsweetened
- 1.5 cups buttermilk room temperature
- 1.5 cups vegetable oil
- 2 large eggs room temperature
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract pure
- 1 teaspoon white vinegar
- 2 teaspoons pink food coloring or more for desired color
Instructions
Preparation Steps
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare two 9-inch round cake pans by greasing them and lining the bottoms with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking soda, salt, and cocoa powder.
- In a separate bowl, combine the buttermilk, oil, eggs, vanilla extract, and vinegar.
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Add the pink food coloring a little at a time until you reach the desired color. Mix well.
- Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then turn them out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
For a richer flavor, consider adding a cream cheese frosting or enhancing with additional red fruit on top for garnish.
