AUNT MARILYN'S RED VELVET CAKE



Aunt Marilyn's Red Velvet Cake image

I remember going to gatherings at the Ripley's and there would always be Aunt Marilyn's Red Velvet Cake. It always seemed to be the first to go and I'd never get a piece. Now, it's the first thing I put on my plate. I'm glad she shared it with me to put in our Family Reunion Cookbook.

  • 6. Aunt Marilyn's Personal Notes: 1 cake recipe = 32 cupcakes A single icing recipe is sufficient For any red cakes I make, I increase the amount of icing by 1 1/2 times. NOTE: I have found that this icing recipe quantities is sufficient for a 4-layer cake. I don't know if what she wrote was the "increase 1 1/2 times" or the "single" icing recipe. ~Carolyn
