Too much flour in my cake?

Use self- rising flour (not all-purpose) and sift it (makes it lighter in texture), add more vanilla- 2+ teaspoonsful in the cake, 1 TBSP cocoa (instead of 1 teaspoon) and use 2 teaspoonsful of vanilla in the frosting. a href="http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/paulas-party/red-velvet-cake-recipe/reviews/page-2.html" rel="nofollow"http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/paula…/a
