  • Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius.
  • In an electric mixer, beat the sugar and oil. Add the eggs and beat well between each egg.
  • Add the red food coloring and vanilla and continue beating. Add the flour, cocoa, milk, salt, and 1 tablespoon of white vinegar and continue beating.
  • In a small deep bowl, mix the remaining vinegar with the baking soda. Add to the batter and continue beating for 10 minutes.
  • Grease two round cake pans with unsalted butter. Pour the batter between the two pans.
  • Bake the cake for 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  • While the cake is baking, prepare the frosting. In an electric mixer, beat the butter and cream cheese until fluffy (3 minutes). Add the powdered sugar and vanilla and beat for 5 more minutes.
  • Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool before unmolding. Cover one cake with the cream cheese frosting and place the other cake on top, covering everything with the cream cheese frosting.
