Time 4h15m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 23

2 8-ounce packages cream cheese
2/3 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
3 tablespoons sour cream
3 tablespoons heavy cream
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Nonstick cooking spray
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1 3/4 cups granulated sugar
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups vegetable oil
3/4 cup sour cream
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1 1/2 teaspoons red gel food coloring
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 teaspoon distilled white vinegar
4 ounces cream cheese
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
1/2 cup sour cream
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Pinch of salt

Steps:

  • Make the swirl: Combine the cream cheese, granulated sugar, eggs, sour cream, heavy cream and vanilla in a food processor and puree until smooth; set aside.
  • Make the cake: Position a rack in the lower third of the oven; preheat to 350 degrees F. Generously coat a 10- to 15-cup Bundt pan with cooking spray and dust with flour, tapping out the excess. Whisk the flour, granulated sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl. Whisk the vegetable oil, sour cream, eggs, food coloring, vanilla, vinegar and 1/4 cup water in a medium bowl. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and whisk until just combined.
  • Spread 3 cups of the batter in the prepared Bundt pan. Pour in the cream cheese swirl mixture, then spoon the remaining cake batter evenly over the top. Bake until the top is cracked and a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean, about 1 hour 10 minutes. Transfer to a rack and let cool 20 minutes in the pan, then carefully invert onto a plate and let cool completely, at least 2 hours.
  • Make the glaze: Combine the cream cheese, confectioners' sugar, sour cream, vanilla and salt in a food processor and puree until smooth. Pour and spread on the cooled cake.

Red velvet boxed cake mix is also good baked as a Bundt cake. I drizzled two frosting flavors: White chocolate Ganache and Duncan Hines creamy classic vanilla in a can (microwaved to drizzle).

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.

RED VELVET BUNDT CAKE RECIPE



Red Velvet Bundt Cake Recipe image

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (15.25 oz) package Red Velvet cake mix
1 (3.9 oz) box instant chocolate pudding mix (you could also use vanilla if you wanted to)
1 cup sour cream
4 eggs
1/2 cup warm water
1 cup white chocolate chips
1 (8 oz) package cream cheese
1/4 cup butter, softened
3 cups powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla

Steps:

  • For the cake:
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F .
  • In a large bowl, mix together the cake mix and pudding mix, sour cream, beaten eggs and water. Stir in the white chocolate chips and pour batter into a bundt pan sprayed with non-stick cooking spray.
  • Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until top is springy to the touch and a wooden toothpick inserted comes out clean. Cool cake thoroughly in pan for about 90 minutes before inverting onto a plate. If desired, dust the cake with powdered sugar or top with cream cheese frosting.
  • For the frosting:
  • Cream butter, cream cheese, and vanilla together, then add powdered sugar. Add more or less powdered sugar, depending on how thick you want the frosting to be. Spread or pipe frosting onto your cake.

Tips:

  • To achieve the vibrant red color, use high-quality red food coloring. Gel or paste food coloring is recommended for a more intense color.
  • Make sure all ingredients are at room temperature before starting. This will help the batter mix more evenly and smoothly.
  • Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough, dense cake. Mix just until the ingredients are well combined.
  • Bake the cake in a preheated oven. This will help prevent the cake from sinking in the middle.
  • Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting. This will help prevent the frosting from melting.
