1. Preheat the oven to 175°C. Grease and line two 8-inch round cake pans with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
3. In a separate bowl, combine the buttermilk, cooking oil, eggs, vanilla extract, red food coloring, and vinegar.
4. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined and the batter is smooth.
5. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans.
6. Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
7. Remove the cakes from the oven and let them cool in the pans for 10 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and cool completely.
8. To make the frosting, beat the cream cheese and butter until smooth and creamy.
9. Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract. Beat until light and smooth.
10. Place one cake layer on a serving plate and spread an even layer of cream cheese frosting on top.
