Pride and Prejudice and Zombies

Last month we read a classic, with a new twist. I tried to think of something very British and dainty to make, but I had to go for the gore with this one. Jessica, a fellow bookclub member, and hostess, actually made these into cupcakes. They were great! So, if you read this new book, bake a red velvet cake to go with it!

EASY RED VELVET CAKE

1 1/2 c. Wesson oil

2 eggs

1 1/2 c. sugar

2 1/2 c. plain flour

1 tsp. soda

1/4 tsp. salt

1 tsp. vanilla

1 c. buttermilk

1 oz. red food coloring

1/2 stick butter

1 box powdered sugar
