1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 cup sugar
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 tablespoons red food coloring
1 tablespoon white vinegar

For the cheesecake layer:

2 packages (8 ounces each) cream cheese, softened
1 cup sugar

Instructions

For the red velvet cake:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round pans.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, beat together the oil and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla.
Beat in the flour mixture alternately with the buttermilk. Stir in the food coloring and vinegar.
Divide the batter between the prepared pans. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean.
Allow to cool for 10 minutes before removing from the pans to cool completely.

For the cheesecake layer:

In a medium bowl, beat the cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla.
Spread the cream cheese mixture over the cooled cake.
Bake in the preheated oven for an additional 25 to 30 minutes, or until the cheesecake layer is set.
