This is the BEST red velvet bundt cake recipe! It's incredibly moist and coated in a silky cream cheese glaze.

Provided by Jenna Barnard

Number Of Ingredients 16

3/4 cup (160g) canola or vegetable oil
1/2 cup (110g) unsalted butter, melted
2 cups (400g) granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 cup (240ml) buttermilk*
2 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp white vinegar
2 tbsp red food coloring
2 1/2 cups (300g) all purpose flour **see notes for GF option
3 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
4 oz cream cheese, room temp
2 cups (240g) powdered sugar
3 tbsp milk
1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven to 350F and set out your bundt pan but don't touch it just yet. For this recipe, you can use either a 10 cup or 12 cup bundt pan.
  • Whisk together your dry ingredients (flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt) and set aside.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the oil, butter, and sugar. You can do so by hand or with an electric mixer with the whisk attachment. Mix for a good 1-2 minutes on medium speed until well combined.
  • Whisk in your eggs and then the buttermilk, vanilla, and vinegar. Finally, mix in the food coloring.
  • Add half of the dry ingredients and mix to combine. Then scrape down the bowl and mix in the other half. If mixing by hand, switch to a rubber spatula and fold in half of your dry ingredients until almost combined. Fold in the rest until smooth.
  • Now, prepare your bundt pan. You can either use the sugar or flour method (both detailed in this blog post). The flour method is the quickest and easiest, so give your pan a light coat of an oil and flour nonstick spray (like Bakery's Joy) and then use a fine pastry brush to spread it around the entire pan, getting it into all the nooks and crannies.
  • Then pour in your batter. If you're using a 12 cup bundt pan, you'll use all of the batter. If you're using a 10 cup bundt pan (like the one I used here), leave out about 1 cup of batter otherwise it will overflow when baked.
  • Bake for 45 minutes if using a 10 cup pan, or 50-60 minutes if using a 12 cup pan.
  • Let it rest for about 10 minutes, then turn it out onto a cooling rack and let it sit for another 30 minutes to cool completely.
  • Mix together the cream cheese and powdered sugar, adding the milk as you go.
  • Once smooth, mix in the vanilla. The consistency should be a bit thinner than craft glue (see image in post for reference). If it's too thick, add 1/2 tbsp of milk at a time until smoothed. If too thin, add 1 tbsp of powdered sugar at a time until thickened.
  • Pour over your cooled bundt cake and serve! Store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

EASY MOIST RED VELVET BUNDT CAKE

I make lots of bundts and this is by far the easiest and most loved of all the different ones I make. Super moist and oh so easy to make. I have 30+ different shapes of bundt pans so it is fun to make them. I make this one in my Nordic Ware Rose shaped pan.

Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 box red velvet cake mix
1 box 3.3 oz, white chocolate instant pudding mix, vanilla works too
3 eggs
1 1/4 c buttermilk
8 Tbsp (1 cube) butter
1/4 c canola or vegetable oil

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 and grease and flour a 10 to 12 cup bundt pan. I use the flour no stick spray, it's fast and easy.
  • 2. Combine all 6 above items in mixer and mix on low for 30 seconds, than mix on medium for 2 minutes. Being careful not to over mix. This batter will be rather thick, spoon into your baking pan and spread to level out. Place on the center rack in your oven and bake 50 to 60 minutes or until tooth pick comes out clean.
  • 3. Let cool in the pan for 20 to 30 minutes then invert it onto your serving dish. You can use a glaze on this but I find it is best just dusted with powdered sugar. You will be sure to get rave reviews when you serve this yummy cake!

PERFECT RED VELVET BUNDT CAKE



Perfect Red Velvet Bundt Cake image

I have tried many supposedly good Red Velvet recipes as it is my daughters favorite, but every time they are too dry. I have heard this complaint a lot. This recipe, however, yields a dense, moist cake worthy of any professional bakery. I do recommend using a bundt pan. It seems to turn out a more consistent product. A glaze instead of this frosting is also nice, but this frosting is wonderful. Do not use butter or cake flour in the cake. It turns out dry.

Time 2h55m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 15

½ cup shortening
1 ½ cups white sugar
2 eggs
1 tablespoon cocoa powder
1 ounce red food coloring
2 ¼ cups self-rising flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup buttermilk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ cup margarine
1 (16 ounce) package confectioners' sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ cup chopped walnuts

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour two 10 inch cake pans.
  • Beat the shortening and white sugar with an electric mixer in a large bowl until light and fluffy. The mixture should be noticeably lighter in color. Room-temperature eggs should be added one at a time, allowing each egg to blend into the shortening mixture before adding the next. Mix the cocoa and red food coloring in a separate bowl and stir into the shortening mixture. Combine the flour and salt. Pour in the flour mixture alternately with the buttermilk, mixing until just incorporated. Stir in vanilla extract. In another separate bowl, mix the vinegar and baking soda. Fold in the vinegar mixture while fizzing; mixing just enough to evenly combine. Pour the batter into prepared pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack before frosting.
  • To make frosting: Cream together margarine and confectioner's sugar, then add vanilla extract. Beat until light and fluffy. Frost cooled cake and sprinkle with walnuts.
