RUBY SLIPPER CAKE

This is the cake I always made for my youngest daughter's birthday when she was growing up. I used to frost it with white fluffy frosting, sprinkle it with shredded coconut and decorate it with a big red ribbon, like a Fluffy White Christmas Wreath, as she had a Christmas birthday. I lost my copy of the recipe and have been looking for it for years and was delighted to finally find it. I am posting it here so I never lose it again! It is a delicious cake with a lovely raspberry filling.

My mom used to make this when I was growing up. As kids we loved it because of the deep red color throughout the cake, plus it tasted great. She always used raspberry Jell-o, but you can use any flavor you like - just keep in mind the color that will be spead throughout.

Tips:

  • Use a good quality dark chocolate. This will give your cake a rich, decadent flavor.
  • Don't overbeat the cake batter. Overbeating can make the cake tough.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached. Overbaking can make the cake dry.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help the frosting to set properly.
  • If you're short on time, you can use a store-bought frosting. But if you have the time, making your own frosting is definitely worth it.
  • Be creative with your toppings. You can use anything from fresh fruit to chopped nuts to sprinkles.
