Ingredients

Scale

  • 2 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1/2 cup white chocolate chips, melted
  • 1/2 cup fresh raspberries, mashed
  • 1 cup unsalted butter (for frosting), softened
  • 4 cups powdered sugar
  • 1/2 cup white chocolate chips, melted (for frosting)
  • 1 tbsp heavy cream (for frosting)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract (for frosting)
  • Pinch of salt (for frosting)
  • 1 cup fresh raspberries (for sauce)
  • 1/4 cup sugar (for sauce)
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice (for sauce)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare two 9-inch round cake pans by greasing and flouring them.
  2. Combine the flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl and set aside.
  3. Beat together the softened butter and granulated sugar in a large bowl until light and fluffy.
  4. Add the eggs one by one, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the whole milk.
  6. Fold in the melted white chocolate and mashed raspberries to create a pink-hued batter.
  7. Divide the batter evenly between the two pans and smooth the tops.
  8. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Prepare the raspberry sauce by cooking fresh raspberries, sugar, and lemon juice in a saucepan over medium heat until thickened.
  10. Beat the softened butter and powdered sugar for the frosting until creamy, then add melted white chocolate, heavy cream, vanilla extract, and salt.
  11. Cool the cakes completely before frosting.
  12. Spread a layer of frosting on the first cake layer, drizzle with raspberry sauce, and top with the second layer, frosting generously.
  13. Garnish with fresh raspberries and drizzle remaining raspberry sauce on top before serving.

Notes

Ensure the butter is softened for a fluffy batter, and do not rush the cooling of the cakes to avoid melting the frosting.
