Instructions:
-
Preheat oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 300 degrees Fahrenheit.
-
Prepare dry ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the dry ingredients – cake mix, cocoa powder, and Jello Instant Vanilla Pudding Mix. Ensure they are mixed thoroughly for even distribution of flavors.
-
Mix wet ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the water, white vinegar, eggs, red food coloring, and vegetable oil until well combined.
-
Combine wet and dry: Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients, stirring continuously to create a smooth batter. Mix for approximately 1 minute to ensure everything is well incorporated.
-
Prepare the pan: Grease a nine-ten inch cake pan generously to prevent the cake from sticking. This step ensures easy removal once the cake is baked.
-
Bake the cake: Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula. Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 1 hour. To check for doneness, insert a toothpick into the center of the cake – if it comes out clean, the cake is ready. Avoid overbaking to maintain its moist texture.
-
Frosting: While the cake is baking, prepare the frosting. In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, powdered sugar, butter, and vanilla extract. Beat the ingredients together until fluffy and well combined.
-
Frost and chill: Once the cake has cooled completely, generously frost it with the prepared cream cheese frosting. For best results, chill the cake in the refrigerator before serving to allow the frosting to set.
Indulge in the luxurious taste of Daniel’s Velvet Cake, a delightful dessert that’s bound to impress with its moist texture and heavenly flavor. Perfect for any occasion, this cake is sure to become a favorite among family and friends. Enjoy the decadence! 🍰
