YUMMERS!!!!! Looks absolutely declicious. I'll definitely be trying it.
I also wanted to apologize for being TOTALLY lame and not doing the project 365. I just knew that it was more than I could handle with these 3 little ones. I took the pics and my camera is...AT MY MOM's! So sorry. ::sniff::

if i could lick the screen and actually taste this decadent photo i would! my mom used to make us red cakes. and i tried her recipe not long ago, but it is from scratch and i'm thinking THIS recipe looks a whole lot easier.
I remember my mom making a Red Velvet Cake when I was a kid and I was so enthralled with the bright color. :) This looks fabulous, and easy too - I think this one is going in my recipe book.
Thanks so much for the recipe. No ice cream needed for this cake. I am so enjoying your picture project. Thanks for letting me be part of this. LuAnn
Will you deliver it to Texas?! LOL
Yum!
Thank you for sharing this recipe! I have 2 daughters in college and I'm thinking I will surprise them for Valentines day with these for each of them. Will make them very popular in their dorm/apartment I'm sure. :)
This looks like a perfect cake to make for Valentines Day. I think I'll give it a try.
Oh, I have this recipe, and I love it. It's a great Valentine's Day cake.
Yum-O!! I must look away, diet starts tomorrow! :(
Sara, thanks for sharing this cake recipe. We love red velvet, I just have never made one. This year I made a German Chocolate Cake which was wonderful.
I joined the Project 365 today, I think it will be fun...
Ohhhhhhhhh. YES!
Just drooled ALL OVER my keyboard. Thanks for that! :)
Made it for the Baxters today. I love that you don't have to use buttermilk and all the other stuff I've used when making it before!
This just sounds delish! And how pretty is that picture!
OOooooooo....Yum!
Wow! That looks awesome. I'll have to try that sometime, but not too soon, I just started back on Weight Watchers! hahaha
Oh heavens! That looks fantastic
Got it. I want to make this for Valentine's Day.
