To make the brownie batter red velvet, less cocoa powder is used and buttermilk is also added to the batter. Buttermilk helps give the brownies the classic red velvet flavor.

Pour the batter into a baking dish and bake until the center comes out clean with a toothpick. Let cool completely before serving.
