• Butter two 9-inch cake pans. Line the bottoms of the pans with parchment and then butter again.
• In a food processor, chop beets to pieces about the size of finely diced onions. Measure 1 cup and set aside (remaining beets can be reserved for another purpose). Return cup of beets to the food processor. Purée with buttermilk, lemon juice, vinegar and vanilla until smooth.
• Sift together flour, cocoa, baking powder, salt and baking soda. Set aside.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer, beat butter until soft. Slowly add sugar and beat until creamy. Beat in eggs one at a time, scraping down the sides of the bowl after each addition.

• Divide batter between prepared cake pans, smoothing the tops. Bake until a cake tester inserted in the cake comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Remove pans from oven and cool completely on a wire rack.
• To assemble, remove one cake from its pan and peel away parchment. Place flat side down on a serving platter. Drop about 1 cup of icing onto cake and, using a flat spatula, spread evenly over top. Remove the second cake from its pan and remove parchment. Place flat side down on top of first layer. Use remaining frosting to cover top and sides of cake.

RED VELVET CUPCAKES - LIGHT AND EASY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees then line a 12-hole muffin tray with cupcake liners.
• In a large mixing bowl, add the eggs, sugar and salt, then using a handheld or standing mixer, beat on medium-high for about 5 minutes (until pale and mix has doubled in size).
• Add the grated beets, flour, ground almonds, cocoa powder and baking powder; Stir to combine.
• Add the buttermilk and food coloring then beat again to make sure that all the ingredients are well-incorporated.
• Spoon batter into the cupcake liners (be sure not to fill more than two-thirds of the way up as it will overflow when cooking).
• Bake for 30 minutes; While the cupcakes are cooking, make the icing:
• Prepare a double boiler; Place all the icing ingredients in the bowl of the double boiler, and stir to dissolve the sugar with a clean metal spoon for exactly 4 minutes; the mixture should be warm.
• Remove the bowl from the heat, and beat with a hand or standing mixer on high speed, until cool and the mixture has turned into a meringue, no more than 5 minutes (The mixture is ready to use when it has formed stiff peaks).
• Pipe or spread 1 heaping tablespoon of the icing over the cooled cupcakes. ( take care to ice the cakes very quickly, as the icing will start to set and is best when just made).
