Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 3 cups flour
  • 1 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 tbsp + 1 tsp cocoa powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 cup vegetable oil
  • 3/4 cup buttermilk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 oz red food coloring
  • 2 tsp vinegar
  • 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
  • 3 tbsp milk
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, beat the cream cheese and 1/4 cup sugar until smooth. Add 1 egg and 1 tsp vanilla extract, and beat until combined. Set aside.
  2. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large bowl, combine flour, 1 1/4 cups sugar, cocoa powder, and baking soda. Mix well.
  3. In another bowl, mix vegetable oil, buttermilk, 1 tsp vanilla extract, and 2 eggs. Beat until combined, then add red food coloring and vinegar.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until smooth.
  5. Grease a bundt pan, pour half the batter, spread the cheesecake filling, then pour the remaining batter. Smooth it out.
  6. Bake for 50-60 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes, then invert onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  7. For the glaze, whisk together powdered sugar, 3 tbsp milk, and 1/2 tsp vanilla extract until smooth.
  8. Drizzle the glaze over the cooled cake and serve.

Notes

Check the cake a few minutes before the cooking time ends to prevent overbaking. Allow cooling to maintain the shape.
