I love an easy red velvet cake recipe. The fact that this list has over 25 makes me so very happy! Not only do they require minimal ingredients, but you don’t need a ton of kitchen tools either.
Once the cake is baked and you’ve let it cool completely in the cake pan, you can then proceed in frosting the cake. If you’re not a frosting fan, powdered sugar on top is yummy, too.
Room temperature cakes and treats are best to frost. If they’re too hot, the frosting will melt off or into the dessert.
While the texture of the cake is delicious, I’m a sucker for that cream cheese frosting that is added or drizzled on top. I’ll also use some melted white chocolate but that is a whole different story!
Is there a boxed cake brand that is better than others?
This is really based on preference. I would say that Duncan Hines and Betty Crocker are probably the most popular. Why don’t you have a taste test and see what you prefer?
