Ingredients

For the Cake

• 2 cup All-purpose flour
• 1 ½ cup Granulated sugar
• 1 tsp Baking soda
• 1 tsp Salt
• 2 tbsp cocoa powder
• 1 cup Vegetable oil
• 1 cup Buttermilk
• 2 each Eggs
• 1 tsp Vanilla extract
• Red food coloring

For the Frosting

• 8 oz Cream cheese
• ¼ cup Butter (Softened)
• 1 ½ cup Powdered sugar
• Pink or red sprinkles (optional)

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F. Grease and flour a bundt cake pan.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking soda, salt, and cocoa powder. Mix well until all the dry ingredients are evenly incorporated.
3. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the vegetable oil, buttermilk, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined. Add a few drops of red food coloring to achieve the desired red velvet color. Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir until the batter is smooth and no lumps remain.
4. Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared bundt cake pan, spreading it evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
5. Cool the Cake: Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
6. Prepare the Frosting: While the cake is cooling, prepare the frosting. In a mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and softened butter until smooth and creamy.
7. Finish the Frosting: Gradually add the powdered sugar to the cream cheese and butter mixture, beating well after each addition, until the frosting is light and fluffy.
8. Frost the Cake: After the cake has cooled completely, spread the cream cheese frosting over the top and sides of the bundt cake. Decorate with pink or red sprinkles to add a touch of love.
9. Serve: Slice and serve this delicious Red Velvet Love Bundt Cake to your loved ones; enjoy!

Notes

• Room Temperature Ingredients: For a smooth batter and creamy frosting, make sure your eggs, buttermilk, butter, and cream cheese are at room temperature before mixing.
• Bundt Pan Prep: Grease and flour every nook and cranny of your bundt pan to help the cake release cleanly—don’t skimp on this step!
• Red Color: Use gel food coloring for a vibrant red hue without thinning the batter.
• Mixing: Don’t overmix the batter once you combine wet and dry ingredients—just stir until smooth for a tender crumb.
• Frosting: Let the cake cool completely before frosting to prevent the cream cheese frosting from melting.
• Decoration: Add sprinkles or colored sugar right after frosting so they stick well.
• Serving: For clean slices, use a sharp knife and wipe it between cuts.
• Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Bring slices to room temperature before serving for the best texture.
