Ingredients

Servings
  • 3 1/4 c all-purpose flour unbleached
  • 3/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 c + 1 1/2 Tbsp cocoa powder
  • 1 1/2 c unsalted butter room temperature
  • 2 1/4 c sugar
  • 3 egg room temperature
  • 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract pure
  • 1 1/2 cup buttermilk
  • 3 Tbsp green food coloring
  • 2 1/4 tsp vinegar
  • 1 1/2 tsp baking soda

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350ºF. Grease 2 9” round cake pans.
  2. Mix flour, salt and cocoa powder in a medium sized bowl.
  3. In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until fluffy. Add eggs, beating well. Add vanilla and mix until incorporated.
  4. In a small bowl mix buttermilk and food coloring.
  5. Alternating between the two, add the flour mixture and the buttermilk mixture to the creamed butter mixture.
  6. In a small bowl mix vinegar and baking soda. Let fizz and then incorporate into batter with a spatula, stirring just until combined.
  7. Divide batter evenly between two cake pans.
  8. Bake at 350ºF for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Let cool on a wire rack 10 minutes before removing from pan.

Notes

  • *Don't Have Buttermilk? Make your own buttermilk by putting 1 1/2 Tbsp white vinegar in a liquid two cup measure and fill with regular milk to the 1 1/2 cup mark. Let your buttermilk mixture stand for 5 minutes before using in the recipe.
