- 1 cup of sugar
- 2 eggs

Instructions
The first step to making this Red White and Blue Velvet Cake is to preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans. In a medium bowl, stir together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the buttermilk and vanilla extract. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until combined. Divide the batter evenly between two bowls and stir in the red and blue food coloring to create the desired shades of red and blue.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pans and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Allow the cakes to cool completely before frosting.
To make the frosting, beat the cream cheese and butter together until light and fluffy. Gradually add the confectioners' sugar and beat until combined. Add the vanilla extract and beat until incorporated. Spread the frosting onto the cooled cakes and top with fresh berries, if desired.
Your Red White and Blue Velvet Cake is now ready to be served. Enjoy!
