INGREDIENTS

🔴 For the Red Velvet Cake:

  • ¾ cup all-purpose flour
  • ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 4 large eggs
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon red food coloring
  • ¼ cup buttermilk

⚪ For the Cheesecake Filling:

  • 8 oz (1 block) cream cheese, softened
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

🧈 Optional Toppings:

  • Powdered sugar (for dusting)
  • White chocolate drizzle or melted chocolate (optional)

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 10×15 inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper and lightly grease.
  2. In a bowl, sift together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs for 3-5 minutes until thick and pale. Gradually add sugar and beat until combined.
  4. Mix in vegetable oil, vanilla, red food coloring, and buttermilk.
  5. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly. Bake for 12-14 minutes, or until the cake springs back when lightly touched.
  7. While the cake is baking, lay out a clean kitchen towel and dust generously with powdered sugar.
  8. Once the cake is done, immediately flip it onto the towel, peel off the parchment paper, and gently roll the cake up in the towel starting from the short side. Let cool completely.
  9. Meanwhile, prepare the filling: Beat the cream cheese and butter until creamy. Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract and beat until smooth.
  10. Once the cake is cooled, carefully unroll it and spread the cheesecake filling evenly across the surface.
  11. Roll the cake back up (without the towel), wrap it in plastic wrap, and chill for at least 1 hour.
  12. Before serving, dust with powdered sugar or drizzle with melted chocolate if desired.
