Red Velvet Pound Cake

I've never been a huge fan of red velvet cake, only because it always tasted "sort of" like chocolate. And when I taste chocolate, I want it to really be chocolatey! None of this "kind of" chocolate flavor - I want the real deal!

That was until I tried this version of red velvet cake.

OH MAN.

First of all, yes it uses a red velvet cake mix. I even when the cheap route and picked up a generic version to just see if this would really taste amazing. Oh wow, did it ever! This is a typical, heavy, rich, pound cake with a true chocolate flavor running through the center. The cream cheese frosting is sweet, but perfectly offsets the rich flavor of the cake, in my opinion. My main problem was sticking to my diet when this baby was on the counter!

Which is why I had it wrapped up and in the backseat of my car ready to take to my mom (red velvet is one of her favorites). Which she then proceeded to tell me she had come down with the stomach bug. Sorry, mom. :( Instead, the amazing members of the board at our church had a treat during their meeting after service this Sunday instead! And boy am I glad that thing is out of the house - I have no willpower around a cake of this magnitude, that's for sure!
