Ingredients
Scale
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup vegetable oil
1 cup buttermilk
2 large eggs
2 tablespoons red food coloring
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon vinegar
1/2 teaspoon salt
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking soda, and salt until evenly mixed.
In another bowl, whisk together the vegetable oil, buttermilk, eggs, red food coloring, and vanilla extract until thoroughly combined.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture, stirring gently until just combined.
In a separate bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until creamy.
Pour half of the red velvet cake batter into the prepared pan. Add dollops of the cream cheese mixture on top, then pour the remaining cake batter over it. Use a knife to swirl the mixtures together gently.
Place your masterpiece in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Allow cooling in the pan before removing.
