Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 14

Unsweetened baking cocoa
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup butter or margarine, softened
2 tablespoons raspberry liqueur or raspberry syrup
6 eggs
1 bag (6 oz) semisweet chocolate chips (1 cup), melted, cooled
1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
2 packages (12 oz each) frozen raspberries in syrup, thawed
1/2 cup butter or margarine, softened
2 tablespoons powdered sugar
4 oz white chocolate baking bars (from 6-oz package), melted, cooled
1/8 teaspoon vanilla
2 oz white chocolate baking bars (from 6-oz package), melted, cooled
Hot fudge sauce or topping, if desired

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 400°F. Grease bottoms and sides of two 8-inch round cake pans; sprinkle with cocoa. In small bowl, beat granulated sugar and 1 cup butter with electric mixer on medium speed until smooth. Beat in liqueur, eggs and melted semisweet chocolate. Stir in flour. Pour into pans.
  • Bake about 20 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes; remove from pans to cooling rack. Cool completely.
  • Place raspberries in blender or food processor. Cover and blend on high speed, stopping blender occasionally to scrape sides, until almost smooth; strain.
  • To make filling, in small bowl, beat 1/2 cup butter and the powdered sugar with electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy. Beat in 4 ounces white chocolate and the vanilla until smooth.
  • Place 1 cake layer on serving plate; spread with filling. Make about 1/4-inch deep ring in filling 1 inch from edge of cake, using tip of spoon. Make another 1/4-inch-deep ring 1 inch inside outer ring. Fill each ring with about 5 tablespoons raspberry puree. Place second cake layer on filling. Drizzle melted white chocolate over top of cake.
  • Refrigerate uncovered about 10 minutes or until white chocolate is set. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 3 hours until filling is firm. Serve with remaining raspberry puree and fudge sauce. Store in refrigerator.
