Yield: 12 large servings

Ingredients

Vanilla Sponge Cake

3 large eggs, room temperature

⅓ cup plus 1 tablespoon granulated sugar (85 g)

¾ cup plus 1 tablespoon whole milk (200 ml)

⅓ cup plus 1 tablespoon vegetable oil (100 ml)

2 cups all-purpose flour (250 g)

1 packet vanilla sugar (8 g)

2½ teaspoons baking powder (10 g)

¼ teaspoon salt

Whipped Cream Filling

1 packet powdered whipped cream mix (about 2 oz)

⅓ cup plus 1 tablespoon cold whole milk (100 ml)

Homemade Raspberry Topping

1¼ cups fresh or frozen raspberries (180 g)

⅓ cup plus 1 tablespoon granulated sugar (85 g)

¾ cup plus 1 tablespoon water (200 ml)

1 tablespoon cornstarch

¼ cup plus 1 tablespoon cold water (50 ml)

1 packet vanilla sugar (8 g)

For Soaking and Decoration

¾ cup plus 1 tablespoon whole milk (200 ml)

1 oz white chocolate, melted (30 g)

⅓ cup finely chopped pistachios (40 g)

How to make it

Prepare the baking pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a 9 x 13-inch rectangular baking pan with parchment paper.

Whip the eggs and sugar: In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs and granulated sugar for 4 to 5 minutes until pale, fluffy, and slightly thickened.

Add the wet ingredients: Slowly add the milk and vegetable oil, mixing gently until combined.

Finish the vanilla batter: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, vanilla sugar, baking powder, and salt. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the egg mixture until you have a smooth, fluffy batter. Avoid overmixing.

Bake the sponge: Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly. Bake for approximately 25 to 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool completely.

Soak the cake: Once cooled, gently poke small holes across the sponge using a skewer or fork. Slowly pour the milk over the cake, allowing it to soak in evenly. Refrigerate while preparing the toppings.

Prepare the raspberry sauce: Add the raspberries, sugar, and water to a saucepan over medium heat. Cook for 5 to 7 minutes, stirring gently until the berries soften and release their beautiful juices.

Thicken the topping: In a small bowl, dissolve the cornstarch in the cold water. Pour this mixture into the raspberries while stirring continuously. Cook for another 1 to 2 minutes until thick, glossy, and beautifully vibrant. Stir in the vanilla sugar and remove from the heat. Allow to cool completely.

Make the whipped cream: Pour the cold milk into a chilled mixing bowl. Add the powdered whipped cream mix and beat according to the package directions until thick, fluffy, and holding its shape.

Add the cream layer: Spread the whipped cream generously over the chilled vanilla sponge. Smooth the surface with a spatula to create an even, beautiful layer.

Add the raspberry topping: Carefully spoon the cooled raspberry sauce over the whipped cream. Spread gently, making sure the entire surface is covered with that gorgeous fruity topping.

Decorate like a bakery cake: Drizzle the melted white chocolate over the raspberry layer in delicate patterns. Sprinkle the finely chopped pistachios generously around the edges or across the top.

Chill and serve: Refrigerate for at least 3 to 4 hours, preferably overnight, to allow the layers to set and the flavors to come together. Cut into generous squares and serve chilled.

Baker's Tips

Beat the eggs and sugar until fluffy for a beautifully soft sponge.

Let the raspberry topping cool completely before spreading it over the whipped cream.

Use fresh or frozen raspberries depending on availability.

Chill overnight for cleaner slices and the best flavor.

Add the pistachios just before serving if you want to preserve their crunch.

Storage: Keep refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

This Raspberry Cream Cake is pure elegance in every bite! The fluffy vanilla sponge, dreamy whipped cream, tangy raspberry topping, and crunchy pistachios make the most beautiful combination. One slice simply won't be enough! ❤️

Ingredients

Chocolate Cake

2 cups all-purpose flour

1½ cups granulated sugar

¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder

3 large eggs, room temperature

¾ cup vegetable oil

1 cup whole milk

¾ cup hot coffee or hot water

2 teaspoons baking powder

½ teaspoon baking soda

½ teaspoon salt

Chocolate Buttercream

1 cup unsalted butter, softened

3 cups powdered sugar

½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder

¼ cup heavy cream

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Pinch of salt

Milk Chocolate Ganache

12 oz milk chocolate, finely chopped (340 g)

½ cup heavy cream

1 tablespoon unsalted butter

Decoration

5 to 6 milk chocolate truffles

½ cup chocolate chips

½ cup chocolate curls

½ cup reserved chocolate buttercream for piping

Assorted chocolate candies

How to make it

Prepare the cake pans: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line two 8-inch round cake pans with parchment paper.

Combine the dry ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

Make the chocolate batter: Add the eggs, vegetable oil, milk, and vanilla extract. Mix until combined. Slowly pour in the hot coffee or water and mix until you have a smooth, slightly thin chocolate batter.

Bake the cake layers: Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Let the cakes cool for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack. Cool completely before decorating.

Make the chocolate buttercream: Beat the softened butter until pale and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Gradually add the powdered sugar and cocoa powder. Pour in the heavy cream, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Beat until smooth, light, and beautifully creamy. Reserve ½ cup for decoration.

Prepare the milk chocolate ganache: Place the chopped milk chocolate in a heatproof bowl. Heat the heavy cream until steaming but not boiling. Pour it over the chocolate and let it sit for 2 minutes. Stir gently until smooth, then add the butter. Allow the ganache to cool until thick but still pourable.

Assemble the cake: Place one chocolate cake layer on a serving plate. Spread a generous layer of chocolate buttercream over the top. Place the second cake layer on top and gently press to secure.

Cover with chocolate buttercream: Spread a thin, even layer of the remaining buttercream over the top and sides of the cake. Refrigerate for 20 minutes to help everything firm up.

Add the glossy ganache: Pour the cooled milk chocolate ganache over the cake, allowing it to flow naturally over the edges. Use a spatula to create a smooth, luxurious chocolate finish.

Decorate like a bakery masterpiece: Pipe generous buttercream swirls around the top. Arrange the chocolate truffles between the swirls, then sprinkle chocolate chips, chocolate curls, and assorted chocolate candies over the cake.

Chill and serve: Refrigerate for 30 to 45 minutes, or until the ganache and decorations are nicely set. Let the cake sit at room temperature for about 15 minutes before slicing for the perfect creamy, fudgy texture.

One slice is never enough when it comes to this chocolate dream! Serve with a cup of coffee or a cold glass of milk and enjoy every delicious bite. 🍫

Yield: 12 large slices
Ingredients

Chocolate Cookie Crust

1½ cups finely crushed chocolate sandwich cookies (about 180 g)

4 tbsp unsalted butter, melted (56 g)

Chocolate Cheesecake Filling

24 oz full-fat brick cream cheese, softened (680 g)

½ cup granulated sugar (100 g)

3 large eggs, room temperature

8 oz semisweet chocolate, finely chopped (225 g)

½ cup heavy whipping cream (120 ml)

1 tsp vanilla extract

Chocolate Ganache

4 oz semisweet chocolate, finely chopped (115 g)

½ cup heavy whipping cream (120 ml)

Cocoa Whipped Cream

½ cup cold heavy whipping cream (120 ml)

2 tbsp powdered sugar

1 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder

Chocolate shavings, for decorating

How to Make It

Prepare the crust. Preheat the oven to 325°F. Lightly grease a 9-inch springform pan and line the bottom with parchment paper. Mix the crushed chocolate cookies with melted butter until evenly coated.

Press and bake. Firmly press the cookie mixture into the bottom of the pan. Bake for 8–10 minutes, then set aside to cool slightly.

Melt the chocolate. Place the chopped semisweet chocolate and heavy cream in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in short 20-second intervals, stirring until smooth. Let cool until just slightly warm.

Make the filling. Beat the softened cream cheese and sugar until smooth and creamy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing on low speed after each addition.

Add the chocolate. Pour in the melted chocolate mixture and vanilla extract. Mix gently until the filling is silky and fully combined. Avoid overmixing.

Fill the pan. Pour the chocolate cheesecake filling over the prepared crust and smooth the top.

Bake gently. Place the springform pan inside a larger roasting pan. Carefully pour hot water into the larger pan until it reaches about halfway up the sides of the springform pan, keeping the water below the foil line. Bake for 55–70 minutes, until the edges are set and the center still has a slight wobble.

Cool slowly. Turn off the oven, crack the door open, and let the cheesecake rest inside for about 1 hour. Remove from the water bath, cool completely, then refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight.

Make the ganache. Place the chopped chocolate in a heatproof bowl. Heat the heavy cream until steaming, pour it over the chocolate, and let stand for 2 minutes. Stir until smooth and glossy.

Add the topping. Pour the ganache over the chilled cheesecake and spread gently to the edges. Return to the refrigerator until the ganache is set.

Whip the cocoa cream. Beat the cold heavy cream, powdered sugar, and cocoa powder until fluffy and medium-stiff peaks form.

Decorate and serve. Add a generous swirl of cocoa whipped cream to each slice and finish with chocolate shavings.

For beautiful slices, dip a sharp knife in hot water and wipe it clean between cuts. Keep chilled until serving and enjoy every rich, creamy, chocolate-filled bite!

Storage: Store covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. You can freeze the cheesecake without the whipped cream for up to 2 months.

How to Make It

Prepare the pan. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a 9-by-13-inch baking dish and line the bottom with parchment paper if desired.
