Add the eggs, one at a time, scraping down the sides of the bowl and beat until incorporated.

Beat in the vanilla, vinegar and food coloring.

Add the flour mixture to the batter in 3 batches alternating with the buttermilk, mixing well after each addition.

Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans and bake for 30 to 40 minutes or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.

Cool on a baking rack for 15 minutes before removing the cake from the pans.

Let cool completely before frosting. Slice each cake into 2 layers and frost.

Add the cold paste, a few tablespoons at a time to the butter mixture and whip until light and fluffy.
