Pink Champagne

I’ve received so many requests for this recipe that I decided to post it in here for everyone to enjoy. This cake is ultra-moist and has a delicate champagne flavor.

Pink Champagne

Ingredients

  • 1 box french vanilla cake mix (I’ve used white too)
  • 1/4 C. vegetable oil
  • 2 envelopes whipped cream topping mix(Dream Whip)
  • 1-1/4 C. pink champagne, flat (you can pour just opened champagne in a pitcher, stir, let bubbles rise and dissipate, repeat until flat, only takes a couple of minutes)
  • 4 egg whites and 1 whole egg
  • small amount of pink food coloring (faint pink looks more delicate than a darker phony pink)

Instructions

  1. Beat all ingredients together in a mixer for 3 minutes. Batter will be a blush color. Pour into greased, floured pans; Bake at 350 until it tests done. For icing I use vanilla extract and replace usual liquid with flat champagne. If using pink champagne icing will tinge slightly pink…you can use white champagne for this recipe as well.
  2. IMPORTANT NOTE AND RECOMMENDATION: I also fill this cake with this icing because any other flavors like strawberry etc. will delete the delicate champagne cake flavor completely.
