Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups fresh raspberries (or frozen, thawed)
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 8 oz white chocolate, melted and cooled slightly
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened (for frosting)
  • 4 cups powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons milk (or as needed for consistency)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, and salt. In a separate bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time, blending well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  2. Gradually add the flour mixture to the butter mixture, alternating with milk. Mix until just combined.
  3. Pour the cake batter evenly into two greased and floured 9-inch round cake pans. Bake in your preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  4. Once baked, remove the cakes from the oven and let them cool in the pans for about 10 minutes. Then, transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  5. In a saucepan, combine the fresh raspberries, 1/2 cup sugar, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat, gently smashing the raspberries until they break down, about 5-7 minutes. Allow it to cool.
  6. While waiting for the raspberry filling to cool, melt the white chocolate in a bowl over simmering water, stirring until smooth. Set it aside to cool slightly.
  7. In another large bowl, cream together the softened butter and powdered sugar. Gradually add in the melted white chocolate and beat until light and fluffy. Adjust the consistency with milk as needed.
  8. Once the cakes are completely cool, place one layer on a serving plate. Spread half of the raspberry filling on top. Place the second cake layer on top, then use the remaining frosting to cover the entire cake.
  9. Use any remaining raspberry filling to drizzle over the top of the cake or serve it on the side. Garnish with fresh raspberries.

Notes

This cake pairs beautifully with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
