White Chocolate Cake from Dede Wilson's 'the Wedding Cake Book' image

*Use a good quality imported white chocolate like Lindt white bar, Bakers or Merkens white This cake has received rave reviews by many expert cake decorators. (Note: remember, this is the recipe that is supposed to make two 6" layers, but they overflow the pans, so I use it to make two 8" cakes and the layers are about 1 1/2" high)

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h20m

Yield 20 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

8 ounces white chocolate, finely chopped (see step 3)
2 cups unsifted cake flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 ounces unsalted butter, at room temperature
3/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 large eggs
2/3 cup whole milk

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°-- I bake at 300° for 20 minutes then increase oven temp to 325° or you could use bake even strips.
  • Prepare pans with cooking spray and parchment.
  • Melt the chocolate in the top of a double boiler, stirring frequently-- remove from heat before chocolate is completely melted; stir until chocolate is melted and smooth-- cool to room temperature.
  • Meanwhile, sift together the flour, baking powder, salt and set aside.
  • Place the butter in the bowl of your mixer, and with the flat paddle, cream butter.
  • Add the sugar gradually and continue to beat until light and fluffy, about 1 to 2 minutes-- scrape down the bowl once or twice and beat in the vanilla.
  • Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  • Scrape in the melted chocolate and beat until the batter is smooth.
  • Add the dry ingredients alternately with the milk in 3 separate batches.
  • Pour into prepared pans.
  • Bake about 30-40 minutes, or until a toothpick tests clean or cake just begins to pull away from the sides of the pan-- do not overbake.

This cake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still very good. The cake was moist and the frosting was creamy. I think I would have preferred a semi-sweet chocolate frosting instead.

This cake was a disaster. I followed the recipe exactly, but the cake turned out dry and crumbly. The frosting was also too runny. I don't recommend this recipe.
