  9. Finally, when all the flour absorbs, we will add the gel food coloring. If you do not have gel but powder, it is good to mix it with a spoon of milk before adding it to the dough.
  10. We will take two baking pans of the same size and grease them with butter and sprinkle them with flour. Divide the dough into two equal parts and arrange it in the pan.
  11. Bake in a preheated oven at 180 degrees for 30 minutes.Red Velvet Cake Recipe-Family
  12. We do the toothpick test before turning off the oven. If you do not have two identical baking pans, then use one and cut it into two parts after it cools. Let the cake cool and get the cream ready.
