Today, as "Birthday Week" continues, my family is celebrating my dad's birthday. Being that I haven't worked for the past month and am strapped for cash, I've decided to take charge of organising a cake.
Since I absolutely love baking I'm thinking this will be fun (even though my right hand is still out of action for the most part). So after consulting my extensive library of cookbooks I've settled on a classic all-American recipe from Magnolia Bakery.
Magnolia Bakery is somewhat of an institution in NYC. They make the most divine Vanilla Cupcakes and Breakfast Buns!
The recipe I've chosen to recreate is a classic Red Velvet Cake with a Creamy Vanilla Icing, and can be found in The Complete Magnolia Bakery Cookbook by Jennifer Appel and Allysa Torey.
Hopefully it will taste good and look like this:
Wish me luck!
