Directions:
- In a large bowl, cream shortening and sugar until fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Combine food coloring and cocoa; add to creamed mixture. Combine the flour, baking soda and salt; add to creamed mixture alternately with buttermilk. Stir in vanilla and vinegar.
- Pour into two waxed paper-lined 9-in. round baking pans. Bake at 350° for 35 minutes or until toothpick inserted near center comes out clean.
- For frosting, whisk together milk and flour in a saucepan. Cook, stirring constantly, until thick (like paste), about 5 minutes. Cool. Place in a bowl with remaining ingredients. Beat at high speed until consistency of whipped cream. Frost one cake layer; top with second layer and frost entire cake. Yield: 12 servings.
