One of my kiddos who loves Red Velvet Cake recently requested one for her birthday. We had to make it dairy-free… it was a little work but we succeeded. I used a boxed cake which said it was dairy-free.

I’ll try to update this with a printable recipe card later but you can print out the cream cheese icing recipe and write in the changes.
