Recipe: Delicious Red velvet cake

Recipe: Delicious Red velvet cake Delicious, fresh and tasty.
Red velvet cake. This Red Velvet cake was definitely not what I expected. It could be that I have no experience with Red Velvet cake but with this recipe the cake was much to heavy. The Icing was bland and honestly tasted like flour.
Nowadays most cocoa powders are alkalized, as in stripped of acid.
Look for a non-alkalized one for this old-fashioned recipe.
Completing the classic look is a coat of bright white ermine frosting, cooked the old-fashioned way.
