Ingredients

Scale

Cake Ingredients

  • 2 ½ cups All-Purpose Flour
  • 2 ½ teaspoons Baking Powder
  • 1 cup Unsalted Butter, softened
  • 1 ¾ cups Granulated Sugar
  • 4 large Eggs
  • 1 tablespoon Pure Vanilla Extract
  • 1 cup Whole Milk

Frosting Ingredients

  • 8 ounces White Chocolate, chopped
  • 2 cups Heavy Cream
  • ¾ cup Powdered Sugar
  • 2 cups Fresh Raspberries

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Pans and Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 8-inch round cake pans or line them with parchment paper to ensure easy release after baking.
  2. Mix the Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and baking powder to evenly distribute the leavening agent.
  3. Cream Butter and Sugar: Using an electric mixer, beat the unsalted butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 3 to 5 minutes, for a tender cake texture.
  4. Add Eggs and Vanilla: Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the pure vanilla extract to enhance flavor.
  5. Alternate Adding Dry Ingredients and Milk: Reduce mixer speed and gradually add the flour mixture in thirds alternating with the whole milk; start and end with the dry ingredients. Mix just until combined to avoid overworking the batter.
  6. Bake the Cake Layers: Divide batter evenly between prepared pans and smooth tops. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let cool completely before frosting.
  7. Make the White Chocolate Frosting: Melt white chocolate gently using a double boiler or microwave in short bursts, stirring until smooth. Whip heavy cream with powdered sugar until soft peaks form, then carefully fold in melted white chocolate for a creamy frosting.
  8. Assemble the Cake: Place one cake layer on a serving plate, spread a generous layer of frosting, and scatter fresh raspberries on top. Add the second cake layer and cover with remaining frosting. Garnish with additional raspberries for a stunning finish.

Notes

  • Use room temperature ingredients to ensure even mixing and smooth batter without overmixing.
  • Do not overbake to keep the cake moist and tender; check for doneness a few minutes early.
  • Fold ingredients gently to preserve batter and frosting airiness.
  • Chill the frosting slightly before spreading to prevent melting, especially in warmer kitchens.
  • Choose firm, bright fresh raspberries for the best flavor and appearance.
