Easy Red Velvet Cake

I thought that I had everything necessary to make red velvet cake in my pantry and refrigerator, but low and behold was missing one ingredient: buttermilk. I had regular milk in the refrigerator, but I could not find a recipe that called for regular milk. I wasn't going to drive to the store just to pick up buttermilk. So, I decided to keep searching the internet for red velvet cake recipes. I wasn't going to give up that easily. I wanted red velvet cake. So, after searching for another five or so minutes; I found a recipe that used prepackaged cake mix. I had a small box of cake mix and everything else the recipe called for, so I decided to make this recipe. The recipe called for a regular size box of cake mix, and the box I had was half the size. So, I cut the recipe in half, and made a single layer cake. Here are the ingredients needed for the recipe:

-white cake mix
-3 tbsp cocoa powder
-water (the amount stated on the cake mix box)
-1 tbsp oil + the amount of oil the box mix states
-egg whites (according to box mix)
-1 1/2 tsps. red food coloring
-cream cheese frosting (not pictured)

Directions:

1.Prepare the cake mix according to box directions. Add the food coloring and cocoa powder.
2. Pour the batter into a greased and floured cake pan. Bake according to cake mix package directions.
3. Once cooled I frosted the cake.
The cake was very delicious and easy to make. I would definitely make this cake again. I was very satisfied with my results.
