Quick Red Velvet Cake recipe from from www.pillsbury.com

Ingredients

For the red velvet cake roll you will need the following ingredients: 3 large eggs, ¾ cup of granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons of unsweetened cocoa powder, 2 tablespoons of butter, melted and cooled, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, 1 tablespoon of red food coloring, ¾ cup of all-purpose flour, ¼ teaspoon of baking powder, ¼ teaspoon of salt, and ¾ cup of powdered sugar for rolling.

Instructions

Begin by preheating your oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease and line a 15x10 inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add the cocoa powder, butter, vanilla extract, and red food coloring and mix until combined. In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until combined. Pour the red velvet cake batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Once the cake is finished baking, remove it from the oven and allow it to cool completely. Once cooled, dust a clean kitchen towel with powdered sugar. Carefully flip the cake out onto the prepared towel. Carefully roll the cake and the towel together, starting from the short end. Allow the cake roll to cool completely while rolled up in the towel. Once cooled, unroll the cake and spread a thin layer of buttercream frosting inside. Re-roll the cake and place it onto a serving dish. Decorate with additional buttercream frosting and serve!
