1. Preheat Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans to ensure easy removal.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients:
In a medium bowl, sift together flour, sugar, baking soda, salt, and cocoa powder until well combined and smooth.
3. Mix Wet Ingredients:
In a large mixing bowl, combine vegetable oil, buttermilk, eggs, red food coloring, white vinegar, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and fully incorporated.
4. Combine Ingredients:
Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, stirring until the batter is smooth and lump-free.
5. Bake the Cake:
Divide the batter evenly between the two prepared pans. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
6. Cool the Cake:
Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for about 10 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
7. Frost the Cake:
Once completely cooled, frost the top of one layer with cream cheese frosting, place the second layer on top, and frost the entire cake. Don’t forget the sides for a perfect finish!
