  • Red Velvet cake is a family favorite. Watching the matriarchs in my family work magic using a box cake mix was aahh inspiring. Whether it was simply adding an extra egg to the mix or substituting one ingredient for another, my mother and her sister's worked wonders in the kitchen.
    I hope you enjoy this cake as much as my family does. 😊
    Red Velvet Cake
    1 Box Red Velvet Cake Mix; 15.25 oz box (I use Betty Crocker)
    1 C. Buttermilk
    1/2 C. Vegetable Oil
    1/2 C. Water
    1 t. White Distilled Vinegar (5% Acidity)
    3 Large Eggs at Room Temperature
    Bake in (2) 8x8 pans @ 325 degrees 30-35 minutes or until tester comes out clean.
    Cake can also be baked in (2) 9x9 pans or 13x9 pan. Adjust baking time according to box directions.
    Cool completely before icing.
    Cream Cheese Frosting
    1- 8 oz. block Cream Cheese (completely soften)
    1 & 1/2 Sticks Soft Salted Butter (12 Tablespoons)
    1 & 1/2 C. Confection's Sugar
    1 t. Vanilla Extract
    (1-2 Tablespoons of milk if need be)
    Refrigerate frosting while cake cools. Also, be sure to refrigerate any leftover cake.
    Enjoy!!

      Gracias por compartir sus tips, la próxima semana es cumpleaños de mis hermanas y planeo sorprenderlas haciendo sus pasteles y uno de ellos lo voy hacer de red velvet, solo que no sabía como hacer para que ya horneado el bizcocho siga conservándose aterciopelado y tampoco tenía idea dw como hacer el betún. He visto varios videos y el suyo es el que me convenció porque muestra tal cual todo el procedimiento. Gracias y saludos desde México. ❤🇲🇽

    Great cake hack! I used coffee instead of water and a tablespoon of cocoa. The extra cocoa does darken the red color but to me it’s worth it.🏆❤️

    Dyvonne I am new to your channel, I've always loved red velvet cake. I've never made it. I am also a RUclips creator. But my desserts are lacking for the overall content of my Channel. That's why I want to compliment you on your outstanding explanation of how to bake a Red velvet cake. So I hit the icon bell so I can get all of your great recipes that write in my channel. Please stay connected.

    Can you please do a video with Betty crockers butter pecan cake mix to taste homemade and moist? Sorry if it’s a big favor to ask but my son has cancer and loves butter pecan flavored foods and snacks and I want to surprise him with a butter pecan cake!
    Also love your video by the way!❤

      @dyvonnescookingforthefamil9498  2 месяца назад +1

      Hi,
      Cupcakes are between 12-15 minutes. Peek at them at about 10 minutes to see how they are baking up. Ovens vary but they should be done around 12-15 minutes . Hope that information helps! Take care, and enjoy 😊.

    Can I use regular milk instead of butter milk

    • @dyvonnescookingforthefamil9498
      @dyvonnescookingforthefamil9498  2 месяца назад +1

      Hi,
      You would need to use Buttermilk in the recipe. Buttermilk is a key ingredient when making Red Velvet cake from scratch, and it gives the box cake the taste, texture, and flavor that is the signature of Red Velvet cake. Side note: I do have several other recipes that call for Buttermilk on my channel; pancakes, muffins, etc, you will find those in my desserts Playlist (if you are needing ways to utilize the carton of Buttermilk). Although I recommend using Buttermilk, you can, in a pinch "make" Buttermilk. 1 C. of Whole milk plus 1 T. of fresh lemon juice. Mix together and let sit in the refrigerator for 20 minutes. The milk will sour/curdle and can be used to substitute for Buttermilk. Use it in the measurement needed. Hope that information helps!!

    Does adding a tsp of vinegar work in any cake mix besides the Red Velvet mix? I figure if it helps one type it would work in all of them...?

    • @dyvonnescookingforthefamil9498
      @dyvonnescookingforthefamil9498  Год назад +1

      Hi,
      Personally I've only added it to Red Velvet and Devils Food cake mix. However yellow or white cake mix should work just as well. 😊

    Does my wet ingredients have to be room temperature?

    • @dyvonnescookingforthefamil9498
      @dyvonnescookingforthefamil9498  Год назад +2

      Hi,
      Yes, it's best to use room temperature water, eggs, oil, vinegar. The Buttermilk can be from the fridge.
      Hope that information helps.😊

      Hi,
      Yes you can use the same recipe for cupcakes. I would bake them for about 12-15 minutes. Check them at 10 minutes to see how they are doing so the cupcakes don't over bake. Hope that information helps. Take care, and if you are not subscribed yet, please consider subscribing 😊.

    How close do this taste to red velvet from scratch?

    • @dyvonnescookingforthefamil9498
      @dyvonnescookingforthefamil9498  6 месяцев назад +2

      Pretty much spot on. The Buttermilk I add really makes a difference in the taste and texture. Plus with my homemade cream cheese frosting ❤️❤️.
