Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
In a large bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking soda, fine salt, and cocoa powder.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the vegetable oil, buttermilk, eggs, purple food coloring, distilled vinegar, and vanilla extract.
Gradually mix the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.
Pour the batter into the prepared pans, and bake for 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then turn them out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cool, apply a generous layer of cream cheese frosting between the layers and over the top and sides of the cake.
