CHOCOLATE-RASPBERRY CAKE
This beauty is baked with a splash of Chambord and layered with a sweet raspberry filling, both of which offer bright counterpoints to the thick layer of chocolate-cream cheese frosting and whole berries scattered on top. You won't be able to have just one slice.

Steps:
- Cake: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly coat three 8-by-2-inch round cake pans with cooking spray. Line bottoms with parchment. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa, baking soda, and salt. In another large bowl, beat butter with sugar on high speed until light and fluffy, 3 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in liqueur. Reduce speed to low and add flour mixture in three batches, alternating with buttermilk in two batches. Beat to combine, scraping down sides of bowl as needed. Beat in melted chocolate.
- Divide batter evenly among prepared pans, smoothing tops with an offset spatula. Bake, rotating pans halfway through front to back and top to bottom, until a tester inserted in centers comes out clean, about 25 minutes. Let cakes cool in pans on a wire rack 10 minutes. Run a small sharp knife around edges, then invert onto rack. Remove parchment and let cool completely, about 25 minutes. With a serrated knife, trim tops of cakes so they're level.
- Filling: While cakes are baking, stir together 3 cups raspberries, sugar, salt, and lemon juice in a medium saucepan. Cook over high, stirring frequently and mashing with the back of a spoon, until mixture comes to a boil, 2 minutes. Continue to cook, stirring, until mixture thickens and clings to spoon, 7 to 8 minutes more. (You should have 1 1/3 cups.) Let cool 30 minutes. Stir in 2 cups raspberries, reserving remainder.
- Spread half of filling over one cake. Top with second layer; spread remaining filling over top. Top with final layer, cut-side down. Refrigerate, covered, at least 1 hour and up to overnight. Spread frosting over top and sides of cake. Garnish with remaining raspberries.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350ºF. Butter two 9-inch round cake pans, and dust with flour, tapping out excess.
- Combine flour, sugars, cocoa, baking soda, baking powder, and salt into the bowl of a mixer. Mix on low. Add eggs, buttermilk, coffee, oil, and vanilla. Beat on medium speed until smooth and completely combined.
- Divide batter evenly among pans. Bake until cakes are set and a toothpick inserted into the center of each comes out clean, about 35 minutes. Let cool in pans set on a wire rack for 15 minutes. Turn out cakes onto racks, and let cool completely.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, fitted with paddle attachment (or any large mixing bowl, if using hand-held beaters), beat the butter on medium-high speed until creamy, about 3-5 minutes. Add the raspberry jam and beat to combine. Turn the mixer down to low speed, and add the powdered sugar. Beat until smooth. Cover and set aside until ready to use.
- Place room temperature butter and vanilla into a stand mixer and beat at medium-high for about three minutes.

- Add in one cup of the powdered sugar. Turn mixer on to low and then slowly add in remaining powdered sugar.
- With mixer still on low, slowly drizzle in the heavy cream. Turn mixer to medium high and mix for 2-3 minutes, or until light and fluffy.
- On a cake plate or board, place one cake layer. Spread raspberry buttercream filling evenly on top of the cake using an offset spatula.
- Carefully place the other cake layer top-down on the frosting, so the top is flat. Adjust the cake so that the sides are lined up evenly.
- Frost the entire outside of the cake with a thin layer of the chocolate mocha buttercream. Place in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to lock in the crumb coat.
- Frost the cake as desired, and arrange raspberries on top of the cake. Dust with powdered sugar if desired.

- 2. Place the first cake layer on a serving plate or on a cardboard cake circle.
- 3. Pipe a dam around the outside of the cake layer with some of the chocolate frosting.
- 4. Spread about 1/4 cup of chocolate ganache on top of the cake, in the center of the dam.
- 5. Drop spoonfuls of the raspberry filling (use about half of the raspberry filling per layer) over the chocolate ganache and then spread into an even layer.
- 6. Add the second layer of cake, then repeat steps 23 thru 25.
- 7. Add the third and final layer of cake on top.
- 8. Frost the top and outside of the cake with the remaining chocolate frosting.
- 9. Use the remaining chocolate ganache to drizzle chocolate around the edges of the cake, then fill in the center. If the ganache has gotten a little firm from sitting, just reheat for a few seconds until pourable again. See my tips on making a chocolate drip cake.
- 0. Pipe swirls with the remaining chocolate frosting around the top of the cake, then decorate with additional raspberries and chocolate sprinkles, if desired. Refrigerate the cake until ready to serve. The cake is best when served at room temperature and holds up well for 4-5 days when well sealed in an air tight container. *You'll need about 2 pints of raspberries for the filling and decor.

CHOCOLATE RASPBERRY MOCHA LAYER CAKE
A good go to chocolate cake. I've changed this basic recipe to accomodate many different flavours over the years but my favourite is the raspberry. Has been enjoyed by many non-vegans who didn't even know the difference! I got this recipe when I was in high school from a friend. Frost the cake with my Easy Chocolate Icing, recipe # 424521. You can change the jam in the recipe easily, or cook down fresh berries with a little water and thicken with cornstarch and use that instead. I have also doubled the icing and flavoured half with mint extract and used that as the filling.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350F with rack in the center.
- Heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease 2-9 inch cake pans with butter. Place a round piece of parchment paper on the bottom of one of the pans and grease again. Sprinkle a few teaspoon of flour over the butter and shake to cover the parchment paper evenly. Shake out the excess flour. Repeat with other pan.
- Whisk together the dry ingredients (sugar, flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt)in a large bowl.
- In a large bowl or bowl of stand mixer whisk eggs till slightly thickened and a pale color.Add in the buttermilk, vanilla, oil and vinegar and whisk/beat well.
- Add in the melted and cooled chocolate and whisk/beat until combined well
- Either add the flour mixture into the wet ingredients OR the wet into the flour and mix just to combine. Add in the boiling water and mix again just to combine. Scrape down the sides of the bowl with a spatula to make sure all the dry ingredients are incorporated.
- Divide batter evenly between two prepared cake pans spreading the batter to pan walls and smooth tops with a spatula. Place pans next to each other on a center rack of the oven.
- Bake until thin skewer or toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 23 to 25 minutes.
- Let cakes rest in pans for 10 minutes. Loosen from sides of pans with a knife, if necessary, and invert onto wire racks. Let cool another 20 min. Carefully wrap the cakes in plastic wrap and place in resealable baggies and freeze completely
- Heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease 2-9 inch cake pans with butter. Place a round piece of parchment paper on the bottom of one of the pans and grease again. Sprinkle a few teaspoon of flour over the butter and shake to cover the parchment paper evenly. Shake out the excess flour. Repeat with other pan.
- Combine the room temperature buttermilk, egg whites, whole eggs and vanilla extract in a measuring cup and stir well to combine.
- Combine the cake flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in bowl of a stand or electric mixer at low speed until well mixed. Keeping the mixer on low add the butter in one table spoon at a time until mixture resembles very fine crumbs.
- Add all but 1/2 cup of milk mixture to the flour mixture and raise speed to medium speed for about 1 1/2 minutes. Add remaining 1/2 cup of milk mixture and beat 30 seconds more. Stop mixer and scrape sides of bowl. Return mixer to medium speed and beat 20 seconds longer.
- Divide batter evenly between two prepared cake pans spreading the batter to pan walls and smooth tops with a spatula. Place pans next to each other on a center rack of the oven.
- Bake until thin skewer or toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 23 to 25 minutes.
- Let cakes rest in pans for 10 minutes. Loosen from sides of pans with a knife, if necessary, and invert onto wire racks. Let cool another 20 min. Carefully wrap the cakes in plastic wrap and place in resealable baggies and freeze completely.
- For the Raspberry Filling:
- Place the thawed raspberries, sugar and lemon juice in a sauce pan, bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and stir occasionally until reduced and thickened, about 8 minutes. Transfer to an airtight container and chill completely before use. If seedless puree is desired, pour the hot puree from the pan into a strainer set over a bowl. Scrape the puree and press against the bottom of the strainer with a spatula to pass the seedless puree into the bowl. Stop to rinse the spatula and scrape the puree off the underside of the strainer. Keep scraping and pressing until all the puree is in the bowl and only seeds are left in the strainer. Chill completely before use.
- For the Raspberry Buttercream:
- Separate the egg whites into the bowl of a standing mixer fitted with the wire whip/whisk attachment
- Combine the sugar, salt and water into a 1-quart, heavy- bottomed saucepan. Stir to combine. Clip on a candy thermometer and heat the mixture over medium-high. After about 5 minutes turn the mixer on high speed, begin whipping the egg whites to stiff peaks, lower the mixer to medium speed. Raise the heat under the sugar syrup to bring the syrup to 245°F. When the syrup is at 245°F, immediately remove from heat, remove the thermometer and slowly pour the syrup into the meringue, while the whisk is still mixing on medium, being careful not to splatter.
- After 1 to 2 minutes increase the mixer speed to medium-high for 3 to 4 minutes, or until the meringue is cooled. The bowl should feel cool to touch. This takes about 7 minutes. Lower the speed to medium and add the butter 1 tablespoon at a time. It might look soupy but keep mixing. Increase the mixer speed to high for 1 to 2 minutes, or until the butter is fully incorporated. Switch to the paddle attachment. Add in the melted and cooled white chocolate Add in the raspberry puree a few tablespoons at a time with the mixer on low, stopping to scrape down the sides as necessary. Taste and add more puree if desired. Keep at room temperature if using the same day. If not, keep chilled in an airtight container and thaw at room temp before using. Transfer to a mixer and mix on low to rewhip the buttercream.
- For the Ganache:
- Chop the chocolate and place in a bowl.
- Heat the cream in a saucepan over medium heat until steaming and small bubbles form around the edges. Pour the cream over the chocolate and let sit 5 minutes. Slowly stir the mixture until smooth, do not mix fast or whip. Add in the honey. Let cool about 15 minutes until slightly thickened before using. You don't want it to runny or to firm
- For assembly:
- Unwrap one cake at a time, thaw for about 10 minutes and then carefully cut in half with a sharp long knife. Repeat with all layers making 8 thin cake layers.
- Place one layer half on a cake circle on top of a cake plate or cake turntable. Spread a ¼" thick even layer of buttercream with an offset spatula. Place another cake half on top. Pipe a ¼' thick circle of buttercream around the edges. Spread a very thin layer of the buttercream in the middle. Spoon in some of the raspberry filling until there is an even layer, about 3-4 tbsp. Place another cake layer on top. Repeat alternating layers of chocolate and vanilla cakes, the buttercream only filling and the thin buttercream and raspberry filling. Ending with a layer of cake and make sure the layers are all even. Chill about 20 minutes. Once the cake is slightly chilled spread a thin, even layer of buttercream with an offset spatula around and on top the cake. This is the crumb coat. Chill again 20-30 minutes. Finished frosting the cake with the remaining buttercream in an even layer around the sides and top, smoothing as you go. To make it super smooth heat an offset spatula in hot water, dry off and go around the sides in the same manner as the buttercream. It doesn't have to be perfectly smooth. Chill again to set the buttercream. Once the buttercream is set, spread the ganache over the top with a small offset slowly making your way to the edges of the top and push a little of the ganache over at a time in random places to let it drip down the sides. You can vary the length of the drips with how much ganache you spread over. It will firm up. To cut perfect slices have the cake completely chilled, and heat up a long sharp knife. I keep the knife in a pot of boiling water. Wipe the blade dry and slice down from the top, once at the bottom pull the knife straight back towards you. Rinse the knife off and heat again. Dry and finish cutting the slice. Use a pie or cake server to carefully remove the slice from the cake. Repeat with remaining slices. Serve cake at room temperature.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 350°F
- Grease and flour two nine inch round cake pans.
- In a large bowl beat together sugar, butter, vanilla, and eggs. Beat until well blended. In another bowl mix together cocoa, flour, baking powder and baking soda. Add milk and flour mixture alternately with butter and sugar mixture . Beat together until combined. Pour into cake pans and bake for 30 to 35 minutes. When finished baking let the cakes cool for 10 minutes in the pan. After they have cooled for 10 minutes remove from pans and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon creme de cacao. Let cake cool completely.
- While cake is cooling prepare whipped cream filling. Add all Filling ingredients (except pie filling!) Whip until stiff.
- Cover bowl and refrigerate.
- After cakes have fully cooled. Carefully split each cake into 2 horizontal layers. Place one layer on your serving plate. (I find it easier to lay the split side down to help avoid crumbs when spreading the whipped cream mixture.) Add 1/2 the whipped cream mixture and spread until the top of the layer is covered. (Do not cover sides with whipped cream mixture) Add the next layer of cake. Split side up. (helps hold raspberry) Add about 1/2 of the can of raspberry pie filling. Spread around the top side of the layer only. (I also find it helpful to go close to the edge but not all the way , so that when the next layer goes on the raspberries aren't running down the side of the cake) Add the next layer of cake split side down. Add the remaining 1/2 of whipped cream mixture. Spread mixture the same as you did the first. Add last layer of cake split side down. Add ganache to top layer.
- Ganache.
- In a sauce pan combine chocolate (broken into pieces) Whipping cream, and butter. Cook over low heat stirring constantly, stir until mixture is melted and smooth. Stir in creme de cacao. Let mixture cool slightly. Put mixture on the top layer.(I put it all in the center and then slowly spread it to the edges. After spreading chocolate but before the mixture cools I decoratively place the fresh raspberries on top. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

Steps:
- CAKE:.
- 1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
- 2. In large mixing bowl, combine cake mix, chocolate pudding mix, sour cream, oil, eggs, and water. Mix well. Add mini chocolate chips, stir.
- 3. Butter 2 8-inch round cake pans and divide batter equally. Bake for 30-40 minutes, until cakes test done. (Stick a toothpick in near the middle and see if it comes out clean. Watch out, if you hit a chocolate chip you may think it's not finished baking when it is!).
- 4. Allow cakes to cool about 15 minutes before turning out of pans to cool completely (at least 1 hour).
- GANACHE:.
- 1. Once cakes are in oven, begin ganache. (This give it enough time to set.) Dump the Ghirardelli milk chocolate chips, 2 tbsp butter, and 1 tsp vanilla into a blender or food processor.
- 2. In a small saucepan, heat 1 cup of the heavy cream and granulated sugar until boiling. Stir constantly, being careful not to burn it.
- 3. Once it begins boiling, pour cream mixture over chocolate chips in blender or food processor. Mix until smooth.
- 4. Place ganache in a covered container and refrigerate until cool and desired consistency.
- MOUSSE:.
- 1. In mixing bowl, combine 2 tbsp softened butter, 8 oz softened cream cheese, 3/4 c of the powdered sugar, 1/2 tsp vanilla extract, and 1/8 tsp salt. Mix at medium speed until smooth.
- 2. Melt 2/3 c chocolate chips in the microwave, about 20 seconds at a time, stirring between each time. They are done when you can stir them completely smooth.
- 3. Add melted chocolate to cream cheese mixture, mixing until fluffy and incorporated, about 1 minute.
- 4. In a separate mixing bowl, combine 1/4 c powdered sugar and 1 tbsp vanilla pudding mix. The pudding mix stabilizes your whipped cream and keeps it from falling or weeping! Add remaining 1 c heavy whipping cream and beat until stiff peaks form. (It should look like whipped cream.).
- 5. Scrape whipped cream into chocolate cream cheese mixture and fold gently to incorporate, stirring gently as needed to combine all ingredients.
- ASSEMBLY:.
- 1. Split cake layers horizontally so that you have 4 layers. Place first layer on cake tray or stand. Divide your mousse into three equal parts.
- 2. Place one third of your mousse in the center of the cake layer. Gently spread it out to the edges to cover.
- 3. Slice some raspberries in half (from top to tip) and cover the mousse with halved raspberries.
- 4. Place next cake layer on top of raspberries.
- 5. Repeat steps 2-4 until you have placed the top layer on the cake.
- 6. Check on your ganache. You want it to have a soft frosting consistency. If it has not set firm enough yet, you can set your container in a bowl of ice water (be careful not to get water in the ganache!) to set faster. If it has set too firm, microwave for 5-10 seconds at a time and stir before microwaving any more.
- 7. Scoop ganache a little at at time on the center of your top layer and spread outwards and down to cover top and sides of cake.
- 8. Place whole raspberries in a ring around top of cake to decorate.
- 9. You may wish to refrigerate your cake a short time before serving to help set ganache and stabilize mousse, or serve immediately. This is a cake to slice THIN. Enjoy!

- Preheat the oven to 350°. Butter two 9-inch round cake pans and line the bottoms with parchment paper. Butter the parchment and dust with bread crumbs, tapping out any excess. In a food processor, pulse the walnuts until finely chopped. Add the cocoa powder, cake flour and espresso powder and pulse until the walnuts are finely ground. Transfer to a bowl.
- In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat the yolks at medium speed until thick and pale, 3 minutes. Beat in 2/3 cup of the sugar; increase the speed to high and beat until thick, about 5 minutes. Beat in the vanilla. In a medium bowl, using clean beaters, beat the egg whites and salt at medium speed until soft peaks form. Gradually add the remaining 1/3 cup of sugar and beat at high speed until the whites are stiff and glossy. Fold the egg whites and ground walnuts into the yolk mixture in 3 batches; fold just until no streaks remain.
- Divide the batter between the prepared pans; smooth the tops. Bake for about 20 minutes, until the cakes are golden and springy. Transfer to a rack for 10 minutes, then invert the cakes and cool completely. Peel off the parchment; turn the cakes right side up.
- Fill a medium bowl with ice water. In a medium heatproof bowl, whisk the yolks, sugar and salt. Gradually whisk in the dissolved espresso. Place the bowl over a saucepan of barely simmering water and cook, stirring with a spatula, until the yolks are thick enough to coat the spatula and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the mixture registers 175°, about 10 minutes. Set the bowl in the ice bath and cool, stirring occasionally.
