Easy Red Velvet Loaf Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting

0 Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 10×5-inch loaf pan.
1 In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
2 In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter and sugar on medium-high speed for about 2 minutes, until light and fluffy.
3 Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Add the vanilla extract and mix until combined.
4 Add the sour cream, milk, white vinegar, and red food coloring and mix until smooth
5 Add the dry ingredients and mix on low speed just until combined, scraping down the bowl as needed
6 Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.If the top starts browning too quickly before the pound cake is done, loosely cover it with a piece of foil on top.
7 Let the loaf cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then remove and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Frosting
9 For the frosting, use a hand mixer or electric mixer to beat the unsalted butter and vanilla extract on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 1 minute. Add the cream cheese, beating just until combined.
10 Add the powdered sugar and salt, then mix until smooth and lump-free. Do not overbeat, as it can make the frosting runny.
11 Spread the frosting evenly over the cooled loaf. Slice, serve, and enjoy
