Ingredients
- 3 cups cake flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup butter at room temperature
- 2 ½ cups granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 5 large eggs
- 1/2 cup milk
Red Velvet Swirl
- 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 5 tablespoons milk
- 1 tablespoons red food color
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 F. Grease and flour a 10-15-cup bundt pan.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together cake flour, baking powder, and salt.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat together butter, sugar, and sour cream until well-combined.
- Stir in vanilla until combined.
- Add eggs one at time, mixing well after each addition.
- On low, stir in flour mixture until just incorporated.
- Stir in milk until combined.
- In a separate large bowl, stir together 2 ½ cups of the batter, cocoa powder, milk, and red food coloring until well-combined.
- Using a 1/4-cup measuring cup, drop two scoops of plain batter into prepared bundt pan.
- Drop one scoop of red velvet swirl batter on top of plain batter.
- Continue to alternate between plain and red velvet swirl batters until both batters are gone.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a wooden toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool cake in the pan on a wire rack for 15 minutes.
- Invert the cake onto wire rack, and cool completely.
Notes
- Cake flour - Cake flour helps to give the cake its tender crumb. If you don't have cake flour, you can make a substitute with this recipe.
- Butter - I use salted butter. If using unsalted butter, increase the salt by 1/2 teaspoon.
- Sour cream - Full-fat sour cream, whole milk Greek yogurt, 2% yogurt, or plain nonfat Greek yogurt will all work.
- Milk - I recommend using 2% or whole milk. The fat helps to make the cake moist.
- Unsweetened cocoa powder - I suggest using unsweetened cocoa powder rather than Dutch-processed because it lets more of the red color come through on the swirl.
