The Best Red Velvet Cake Recipe!

There's nothing quite like a decadent piece of red velvet cake covered in cream cheese frosting is there? I love that it's a unique flavor all it's own.

It tastes like a mix vanilla cake meets buttermilk cakes, meets very mildly chocolate cake. Here you get hints of chocolate complimented by vanilla (we aren't going with a 1 tsp red velvet cake that's just a waste!).

It has a tempting sweetness paired with a nice balance of light tang from the buttermilk. And the luscious cream cheese frosting just perfectly highlights it all.

This cake is one of my favorite cakes and I love making it around the holidays because it's color is so vibrant and festive. Valentines, Christmas, July 4th and birthdays are always a good reason to make red velvet cake.

And this isn't just any red velvet cake. This is thee red velvet cake you need in your recipe box. This is my version that I've tested and re-tested and tweaked and perfected. Everyone always loves it and I hope you love it too!
