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.
RASPBERRY WHITE CAKE
In this classic layer cake, egg whites serve as a leaven; they also give the mountainous frosting all its loft. Cake flour keeps this fruity dessert light and airy, and fresh raspberries are folded into the batter for a pop of color and juicy, tart flavor.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Coat three 8-inch round cake pans with cooking spray, line bottoms with parchment, and coat again. Whisk together flour, salt, and 1/2 cup sugar. In a separate bowl, combine cream, milk, baking powder, and egg whites. Whisk in vanilla, almond extract, and remaining 1/2 cup sugar.
- Fold in flour mixture. Fold in raspberries, then divide among pans. Bake until golden and top springs back when touched, about 25 minutes. (Each cake layer will be approximately 1/2 inch in height.) Let cool in pans 30 minutes. Remove; let cool completely on a wire rack.
- Spread half the jam over top of 1 cake layer, and sandwich with another layer. Repeat with remaining jam and layer. Swirl frosting over top and sides of cake. Sprinkle top with coconut.
RASPBERRY CAKE
This is a moist one layer cake that makes a stunning presentation. The raspberries topping the cake hold their shape and position when the cake bakes. I've also made this cake using blackberries and it's just as pretty and delicious, either as a coffee cake or a dessert cake.

Steps:
- *Note:if using frozen raspberries, thaw them on paper towels for 3 hours before putting them on cake batter.
- Preheat oven to 350°; grease a 9"x9" baking pan.

- Pour into baking pan and cover with the raspberries, starting in the center; place berries, point up, in concentric circles until cake is covered (berries will hold their shape and position as the cake bakes); sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 cup sugar.
- Bake 45-50 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean; serve with a dollop of whipped topping or whipped cream on the side.
RASPBERRY CAKE FILLING
Yummy and easy. Use in the center of cakes, jelly rolls or other desserts. It is deliberately on the runny side as I like my fillings to soak into the cake to add extra moisture. To make a filling that is thicker, increase the cornstarch by a teaspoon at a time until it is as thick as you are used to!

Tips:
- Use fresh or frozen raspberries for the best flavor. If using frozen raspberries, thaw them completely before using.
- To make sure your cake is moist, don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough, dry cake.
- Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. If the toothpick comes out with batter or crumbs attached, the cake needs to bake longer.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help the frosting set properly and prevent it from melting.
- If you don't have a piping bag, you can use a zip-top bag with the corner snipped off to frost the cake.

With its moist crumb, sweet raspberry filling, and creamy frosting, this raspberry cake is sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering. It's easy to make and can be customized to your liking. So get creative and have fun with it!
