Red velvet cake with Cream cheese Icing.

One of my favorite cakes. Besides Chocolate of course ;-)

Red velvet cake:

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoon cocoa powder
1 1/2 cups vegetable oil
1 cup buttermilk, room temperature
2 large eggs, room temperature
2 tablespoons red food coloring
1 teaspoon white distilled vinegar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

bake at 350 for 30 mins or until a tooth pick comes out clean.

Cream cheese Icing.
1 block softened cream cheese
2 splashes of vanilla extract
1 tbsp cold milk
3 cups icing sugar.
Whip until smooth
& I like to tint it a blue because the red of the cake and the blue icing looks really funky together  =D
