HeartCake Recipe
February is here and soon it will be Valentines day. Are you looking to do something special for valentines day? The ingredients for this HeartCake are listed below
White Cake Recipe
note: the recipe below has been doubled to yield four 9-inch cakes
5 ½ cups all-purpose flour
2 tsp baking powder
2 cup (4 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
4 cups sugar
8 large eggs, at room temperature
2 cups buttermilk
2 tsp vanilla extract
Red Cake Recipe
For your heart filling, we have adapted a recipe from Magnolia Bakery, but this one is really up to you. If you’re going for a deep red color, this is a great recipe and it makes a nice large cake. However, if you’d like to make your heart pink or yellow or aquamarine, then you might consider a different recipe. One that doesn’t involve cocoa powder.
If you do decide to make another type of cake, consider doubling the recipe so it will bake in a 13×9 inch pan. You will need a LOT of cake filling.
3 1/3 cups cake flour (not self-rising)
2 sticks unsalted butter, softened
2 ¼ cups sugar
2 eggs, at room temperature
2 egg yolks, at room temperature
6 tablespoons red food coloring (use liquid food coloring, do not use gel)
3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa
1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
1 ½ teaspoons salt
1 ½ cups buttermilk
1 ½ teaspoons apple cider vinegar
1 ½ teaspoons baking soda
