š§ Ingredients:
For the Cake:
– 1 ½ cups (190g) all-purpose flour
– 1 ½ tsp baking powder
– ¼ tsp salt
– ½ cup (113g) unsalted butter, room temperature
– 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
– 2 large eggs, room temperature
– 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
– ½ cup (120ml) whole milk, room temperature
– ½ cup (120ml) heavy cream, cold
For the Whipped Cream Frosting:
– 1 ½ cups (360ml) heavy whipping cream, very cold
– ¼ cup (30g) powdered sugar
– 1 tsp vanilla extract
Optional Toppings:
– Fresh berries
– Chocolate shavings
– Sprinkles or edible flowers
š©āš³ Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line two 8-inch (20cm) round cake pans with parchment paper.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
3. In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugar together using an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy (about 3-5 minutes).
4. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Then mix in the vanilla extract.
5. Add the dry ingredients in two batches, alternating with the milk. Start and end with the dry mix, mixing just until incorporated. Do not overmix.
6. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cake batter using a spatula. This step makes the cake extra light and fluffy.
7. Divide the batter evenly between the two prepared pans and smooth the tops.
8. Bake for 25ā30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
9. While the cakes cool, prepare the whipped cream frosting: In a chilled bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla on high speed until stiff peaks form.
10. Once the cakes are completely cool, place one cake layer on a serving plate. Spread a generous layer of whipped cream frosting over the top.
11. Place the second cake layer on top and frost the top and sides of the cake with the remaining whipped cream.
12. Decorate with your favorite toppingsāfresh strawberries, blueberries, or a dusting of chocolate adds an elegant finish.
š° Tip: For extra flavor, you can lightly soak the cake layers with simple syrup mixed with a touch of vanilla or fruit juice before frosting.
