Dessert
White Chocolate Raspberry Cake
Ingredients
- 1 package white cake mix
- 1 - 5 ounce package instant white chocolate (or vanilla) pudding
- 1 cup sour cream
- 4 large eggs
- ½ cup water
- ½ cup oil
- 1 ½ cup white chocolate chips
- 1 cup raspberry jam
- 2 - 8 ounce packages cream cheese softened
- ½ cup butter softened
- 3-4 cup powdered sugar
- 2 teaspoon vanilla
Directions
- Grease and flour a bundt pan and preheat your oven to 350°F.
- Mix first six ingredients together with a beater.
- Fold in white chocolate chips.
- Fill prepared bundt pan with half of the batter.
- Spoon half of the raspberry filling in small, separated spoonfuls over the batter (so it looks like separate clumps of filling over the top).
- Using a knife swirl the filling through the cake. Swirl until there are lots of tiny swirls throughout.
- Pour remaining batter in evenly and spoon in remaining pie filling, repeating the “swirling” process above.
- Cook in oven at 350°F for 45-50 mins. (do the “knife test” to determine doneness). If the knife does not come out clean, keep placing back in the oven for 3-5 min at a time until it does.
- Remove from oven. Let cool for 20 mins. Remove from pan. (I think it tastes best if you put it on a serving plate, wrap it well in Saran Wrap, and let it sit overnight in the fridge before frosting and serving.)
- In a medium bowl, cream together the cream cheese and butter until creamy.
- Mix in the vanilla, then gradually stir in the powdered sugar (start with 2 cups then keep adding more until it is nice and thick).
Notes
To get the frosting like in the picture. Fill a gallon size Ziplock bag with the frosting and chill for about 30 minutes. Cut off a bottom corner at about a half inch diagonal cut, depending on how big you want the “frosting strips”. Frost cake by squeezing out the frosting from the outside of the cake toward the middle.
