Who doesn’t love mini cakes? Since I like them so much today I decided to propose a small version similar to the red velvet, MINI RED VELVET CAKE a single-portion dessert to delight on Christmas day with a unique and incredible taste.
I confess that I have never been a big fan of red velvet, this is because it is a dessert that contains red dye.
However, at least for the first time I wanted to prepare this cake, but adding less dye. I do not deny that once baked and baked the fear was to get mini cupcakes without color. a bit apathetic.
But once assembled and filled with cream cheese mixed with cream and decorated properly, the end result is really crazy.
This is according to my personal taste. This does not detract from the fact that if you prefer the red color, classic red velvet, you can add the right amount of coloring to the dough. But I’m sure you won’t regret this super version.
I hope you enjoy it!
Served on the table on Christmas day will surprise your guests and family.
