Ingredients
- 2-1/2 cups Kodiak Buttermilk Power Cakes Flapjack & Waffle Mix
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 3 large eggs, room temperature
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3/4 cup butter, melted
- 3/4 cup sour cream, room temperature
- 3/4 cup buttermilk, room temperature
- 1 cup Raspberries, slightly mashed
For the frosting:
- 1 cup (2 sticks) butter, room temperature
- 1 lb powdered sugar
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup raspberries, to top
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 350° F. Grease the sides of three 6” round cake pans and line each with parchment paper.
- Add the Kodiak mix, baking powder, and sugar to a mixing bowl and whisk to combine.
- In another bowl, add the eggs, vanilla, butter, sour cream, and buttermilk and mix until smooth.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and whisk together to form a smooth batter. Fold in the smashed raspberries.
- Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans and bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a tester inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow the cakes to cool for 10 minutes, then run a knife around the edges and invert each round onto a wire rack to finish cooling.
- While the cake layers are cooling, make the frosting: place the white chocolate chips in a microwave safe bowl and pour the heavy cream over the top. Microwave for 45 seconds, remove, and let sit for 30 seconds. Whisk until all of the chocolate melts and a smooth ganache forms. Set aside.
- Place the butter and half of the powdered sugar in a mixing bowl. Beat together to form a thick icing. Beat in half of the ganache mixture. Beat in the remaining powdered sugar, then the remaining ganache mixture until a smooth frosting forms.
- Frost the cake with the white chocolate frosting, stacking each layer with frosting in between.
- Top cake with fresh raspberries.
- Store cake in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
