HOLIDAY RED VELVET LOAF Red velvet is great all year round, but the holiday season makes it even more festive. Experiment with this simple Christmas loaf recipe to create something different from the standard cupcake or cookie. Unsweetened cocoa and red food coloring are both necessary components to produce the renowned red velvet flavor.
Be sure to let the loaf cool on an cooling rack after you remove it from the oven before drizzling the cream cheese on top. This will guarantee that the drizzle won’t melt off due to the heat.
If you’re able to restrain yourself from eating the entire loaf, this recipe also makes a wonderful hostess present or holiday treat for your friends and neighbors. Fill foil holiday loaf pans with your loaves for simple transportation. Have fun baking!
CREAM CHEESE DRIZZLE ON TOP OF RED VELVET HOLIDAY LOAF Print Recipe
15 minutes for preparation Time to Cook: 55 minutes Ingredients: 1 loaf cup softened butter one cup of sugar 4 ounces of softened cream cheese 2 eggs Vanilla extract, 1 teaspoon 1 tablespoon of unsweetened cocoa powder to 2 cups of flour Baking soda and two tablespoons of baking powder Salt, 1 teaspoon, and Buttermilk, 1 cup 1 tablespoon of red food dye DRIZZLE 2 ounces of room temperature cream cheese 14 cup of melted butter Vanilla extract, 1 teaspoon 0.5 teaspoons of corn syrup 1 teaspoon of lemon juice, fresh 1 1/4 cups confectioners’ sugar INSTRUCTIONS Set the oven to 350 degrees. A 9×5-inch loaf pan should be greased or lined with parchment paper. Cream the butter, sugar, and cream cheese in a sizable bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer until it becomes light and fluffy. One at a time, add the eggs, scraping the bowl in between each addition. Beat in the vanilla after adding it. Combine the flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a separate basin. Buttermilk and red food coloring should be combined in a different basin or measuring cup. Add half of the buttermilk mixture after adding the flour mixture to the butter mixture. Continue by incorporating the remaining buttermilk, another of the flour, and the remaining flour while mixing only until mixed. The red velvet batter should be poured into the prepared loaf pan. Bake for 50 to 60 minutes, or until a tester comes out clean. Before drizzling with cream cheese mixture, allow it cool fully. Combine all ingredients for the cream cheese drizzle, then add extra sugar or corn syrup to change the consistency. 12 servings The Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program created to give websites a way to make money by advertising and linking to amazon.com, is where Remodelaholic participates.
