Red Velvet Cake Ingrediants: * 1/2 cup Shortening * 1 1/2 cup Sugar * 2 Eggs * 2 ounces Red food coloring * 2 tablespoons * 2 1/4 cups Plain flour * 1 teaspoon Salt * 1 teaspoon Vanilla * 1 teaspoon Baking soda * 1 cup Buttermilk * 1 tablespoon Vinegar * 1 teaspoon Butter Flavoring (if desired) Frosting * 3 tablespoons Flour * 1 cup Butter (Not Margarine- you can tell the difference in the flavor). * 1 teaspoon Vanilla * 1 cup Milk * 1 cup granulated sugar Directions: Cream Shortening, sugar and eggs. Make a paste with coloring and cocoa and add to mixture. Add salt and flour with buttermilk and vanilla. Alternately add soda and vinegar and don't beat- just blend. Bake in two 9-inch pans (greased and floured) for 30 minutes at 350 degrees. Layers may be split to make four. Frosting: Cook flour and milk on low heat until thick. Then cool (I put it in the freezer for this.). Cream sugar, butter, and vanilla until fluffy. Add to flour-milk mixture. Beat until mixture is like whipped cream. Spread on layers. Sprinkle with nuts if desired "Surely goodness and loving kindness will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever." Psalm 23:6 -Sylvia C.
