INGREDIENTS
  

Red Velvet Cake:

  • 2 cups flour
  • ½ cup semolina
  • 1 and ½ cups sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
  • 1 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 cup kefir
  • 4 medium eggs at room temperature
  • 2 tablespoons red food coloring
  • 1 teaspoon vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Glaze:

  • 2 cups milk
  • 4 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 and ½ tablespoons corn starch
  • 2 tablespoons mascarpone

INSTRUCTIONS
 

  • Preheat oven to 350F. Butter a bundt pan well.
  • In a medium mixing bowl, sift together flour, semolina, sugar, baking soda, salt and cocoa. Set aside.
  • In a large mixng bowl, whisk together oil, kefir and eggs.
  • Add in the dry mixture gradually. Mix with a spatula until combined.
  • Stir in the food coloring, vinegar and vanilla extract.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake 50-55 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  • Let it cool and prepare the glaze.
  • Put everything except mascarpone in a small pot and cook over medium low heat, stirring continuously until it boils.
  • Bring the heat to the lowest and cook until thickens a bit. It’s a glaze, so it shouldn’t be too thick.
  • Remove from heat and stir in the mascarpone. Let it cool for about 10 minutes. Don’t wait a lot; otherwise it gets thicker. Pour it over the cake and wait until it sets. Then top the cake with your favorite berries (I used mulberries).
