Raspberry Filled Red Velvet Cake
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 2 1/2 cups of all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 cups of granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon of baking soda
- 1 teaspoon of salt
- 1 teaspoon of cocoa powder
- 1 1/2 cups of vegetable oil
- 1 cup of buttermilk
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons of red food coloring
- 1 teaspoon of white vinegar
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups of fresh raspberries
- 1/4 cup of granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon of cornstarch
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
- In a large bowl, sift together 2 1/2 cups of flour, 1 1/2 cups of sugar, 1 teaspoon of baking soda, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1 teaspoon of cocoa powder.
- In another bowl, mix 1 1/2 cups of vegetable oil, 1 cup of buttermilk, 2 eggs, 2 tablespoons of red food coloring, 1 teaspoon of white vinegar, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until well combined.
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until smooth.
- Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans and smooth the tops with a spatula.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- In a small saucepan, combine 1 1/2 cups of raspberries, 1/4 cup of sugar, and 1 tablespoon of cornstarch. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and the raspberries break down, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let the raspberry filling cool completely.
- Once the cakes and raspberry filling are completely cooled, place one cake layer on a serving plate. Spread the raspberry filling evenly over the top, then place the second cake layer on top.
- Optional: Frost the cake with cream cheese frosting and decorate with fresh raspberries.
- Slice and serve the raspberry filled red velvet cake. Enjoy!
