4. Baking in preheated oven for 45 min Turn off the heat, open the oven door and let the cake cool in the oven for 30 minutes, then remove it from the oven. Cool on a wire rack to chilled, then transfer to freezer.
5. Make the red velvet cake: Whip the eggs until stiff, adding a pinch of salt. As soon as the white is hard, add the sugar.
6. Then wait two minutes, add the egg yolks one by one and finish mixing by hand with the flour mixed and sifted beforehand with the baking powder and cocoa and baking powder.
