  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  3. In another bowl, whisk together the oil, buttermilk, eggs, food coloring, vanilla extract, and vinegar.

  5. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans and smooth the tops.
  6. Bake for 25-30 minutes, checking for doneness with a toothpick.
  7. Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then transfer them to wire racks to cool completely.
  8. Frost with cream cheese frosting and decorate as desired.

Notes

Ensure eggs and buttermilk are at room temperature for the best results. If you don’t have buttermilk, add 1 tablespoon of vinegar or lemon juice to a cup of milk to create a substitute.
