Happy Thanksgiving! I am grateful for the love of family & friends this day and everyday! Cherish this day with those who bring you joy! If you still need a dessert to bring- here is my award-winning Red Velvet cake! Don’t ever say I didn’t give you something! 😉 #Thanksgiving

Cake Ingredients:
2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 ½ cups sugar
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. cocoa powder
½ tsp. salt
2 eggs
1 ½ cups oil
3 tbsp. red food coloring
1 tsp. distilled white vinegar
1 cup buttermilk
1 cup chopped pecans (optional)

Icing Ingredients:
8 oz softened cream cheese
1 stick softened butter
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1 lb. powdered sugar

Directions:

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Combine flour, sugar, baking soda, cocoa, and salt in a bowl.

Combine eggs, oil, red food color, vinegar, and buttermilk in a separate bowl, beating well. Add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, mixing well until combined.

Grease cake pans with shortening or butter and dust with flour. Bake for 30 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.

When the cakes are done, remove from pans and cool for 1 - 1 ½ hours. While the cake cools, combine the icing ingredients and beat until silky and smooth. Assemble your cake, and garnish with pecans.

Enjoy and send a picture of the finished cake! #HappyThanksgiving
