Red Velvet Cake Recipe

Ingredients

1 (18.75 ounce) package red cake mix

3 eggs

1 1/2 cups vegetable oil

1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract

1/2 cup strawberry jam

1 cup flaked coconut

1 cup chopped pecans

1 cup butter, melted

1 cup sliced almonds

1 cup chopped pecans

1 cup strawberry maraschino cherries

1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened

1 cup confectioners' sugar

1/2 teaspoon lemon juice

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour 2 (8 ounce) pans.

In a large bowl, stir together cake mix, eggs, oil, vanilla, strawberry jam, coconut, pecans and cherries. Mix well. Spread evenly into 2 (2.5 ounce) pans.

Bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Drizzle with butter or margarine, and sprinkle with chopped pecans.

Meanwhile, melt the remaining 1 cup butter in a small saucepan. Mix in the confectioners' sugar and lemon juice. Spread over the cake while it's still warm.
