'Tis the season for yummy treats! There is an abundance of cookies, desserts and snacks at every holiday get together. I have a repertoire of holiday recipes that I use during the Christmas holiday season. One thing I look for when adding a new recipe to that collection is that it must be easy. I don't want to be rushing out the door to pick up an ingredient to make a treat an hour before company is coming.
Red Velvet Cake is a nice, easy to make holiday cake. I use the Easy Red Velvet Cake recipe from the Betty Crocker website. The nice thing about this easy recipe is it is a perfect recipe for Christmas baking with kids to make holiday baking a family affair. Like many easy recipes, this recipe does not require a lot of ingredients or special equipment. The recipe uses buttermilk or water. I recommend using buttermilk for a richer flavour. The red food colouring does not add any flavour, it just adds a festive touch to the cake.
Red Velvet Cake is generally served as a cake, cut into pieces but I like making mini Red Velvet Cupcakes for a delectable tiny treat. I use the Christmas theme mini cupcake paper liners for the cupcakes to add a festive look. After frosting the mini cupcakes, I garnish with a few chocolate sprinkles. These are perfect for the dessert table and for bake sales. They are a keeper for the holiday season!
