  • Total Time: 50-60 minutes

Ingredients

Cake Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 2 tbsp rosewater
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Filling and Frosting

  • 1 cup fresh raspberries
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tbsp powdered sugar
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line two 8-inch round cake pans with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the rosewater and milk.
  4. In another bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
  5. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  6. Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely.
  7. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until soft peaks form.
  8. Once the cakes are cool, place one layer on a serving plate. Spread a layer of whipped cream on top and sprinkle fresh raspberries.
  9. Place the second cake layer on top and frost the top and sides with the remaining whipped cream. Garnish with additional raspberries.
