Red Devil’s Food Cake

Image
This recipe came home from college with my Aunt Peggy. It has since become THE favorite birthday cake for my dad. Since his birthday was a few days ago, I am making it for him. It is honestly so yummy!!! Red Devils Food Cake 2 cups sugar 3/4 cup oil 2 eggs 2 1/2 cups flour 1 tsp. Salt 1/2 cup cocoa 1 cup sour milk (1 Tbs. Vinegar or lemon juice to regular milk) 2 tsp. Baking Soda 1 cup boiling water 1 tsp. Vanilla Blend sugar and eggs. Add in oil and sour milk. Mix in dry ingredients. When well mixed add boiling water and vanilla. Bake at 350 degrees for 30-45 minutes. If making cupcakes they will bake in 10-15 minutes. The family tweak: After the cake has cooled, we cut it in half and layer on chocolate pudding, put the top layer back on and top with homemade whipped cream. It’s best to let the pudding soak into the cake the day before you plan on eating it.
