| 1. Use a box of white cake mix (NO pudding) and substitute champagne - 1/2 to 3/4 cup to replace all of the liquid called for in the cake mix. So if the box says 3/4 cup water replace with 3/4 cup champagne. I did use one that had 1 1/4 cups water and replaced with champagne, just depends on the cake mix brand you buy. The kind of champagne/sparkling wine (pink, white, sweet, dry) used will determine the flavor. I usually just buy the cheap pink sparkling stuff in the grocery store, it's sweet and yummy in this! | 2. Tint with red food coloring to a soft pink, use a drop at a time, this stuff will stain, probably take about 3 drops. | 3. Bake cake as instructed on box. I usually make in 9x13-inch pan, but for an elegant layer cake use two 9 round cake pans, a heart pan would be perfect for Valentine's Day! | 4. Creamy champagne frosting: | 5. Beat 1 cup softened butter for 30 seconds. Gradually add 4 cups powdered sugar. | 6. Beat in 1/4 cup milk, 1/4 cup champagne, and 1 TB vanilla. | 7. Beat in 5-5 1/2 more cups powdered sugar till you can spread it or is consistency you want. | 8. Add red coloring till pink color, again slowly add a drop at a time till color you want. Frost completely cooled cake. | 9. This is excellent served the next day after being refrigerated all night so the flavors can blend! | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
