Classic Sponge Cake With Raspberries and Cream Filling
Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
-
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
-
In a large bowl, cream together the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the vanilla extract.
-
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
-
Gradually add the flour mixture to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk. Begin and end with the flour mixture.
-
Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans. Smooth the tops with a spatula.
-
Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cakes comes out clean.
-
Remove the cakes from the oven and let them cool in the pans for 10 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream and powdered sugar until stiff peaks form.
-
Place one cake layer on a serving plate. Spread a layer of whipped cream over the top. Sprinkle with raspberries.
-
Place the second cake layer on top and press gently to secure. Spread the remaining whipped cream over the top and sides of the cake.
-
Garnish with additional raspberries, if desired. Chill for at least 1 hour before serving.
