Ingredients
  • ¾ cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon white vinegar
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour, sifted
  • 2 teaspoons  baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 cup butter, softened ( 200gm)
  • 1 + ½ cup castor sugar
  • 2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon edible gel red food color
Instructions
  1. Line a 9" circular cake pan with parchment paper. Pre-heat the oven to 180C.
  2. In a cup combine milk and white vinegar. Let it sit for 10 minutes.
  3. In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and baking soda.
  4. In a large bowl, beat the butter and sugar on high speed until the mixture is light and fluffy. This may take about 5 minutes. Add vanilla.
  5. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, and beat well after each addition.
  6. Using a spatula, fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients in three batches, alternating with the milk. Do not over-mix. Mix only until everything is well combined.

  8. Transfer the batter to the cake pan and bake at 180C for 40-45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Once the cake has cooled completely, cover it with cream cheese frosting.
