A easy traybake cake, topped with a chocolate buttercream frosting, crammed and topped with raspberry and white chocolate… what extra may you need from such a simple bake?!

White chocolate bakes

So everyone knows how a lot I like a white chocolate bake proper?! I’ve such an intense habit to all issues candy, so that is the form of factor for me. I like it, and I simply can’t get sufficient of it both. 

My milkybar cheesecake has all the time been insanely in style since posting with hundreds of variations created from it, and it’s the epitome of white chocolate for me. In fact, you should use any white chocolate in baking, however milky bar is a selected one for me. 

My white chocolate drip cake is such a ridiculous showstopper, together with my white chocolate blondies being a candy however easy traybake that hits completely different – all of those bakes can use both grocery store personal primary white chocolate, white cooking chocolate, or perhaps a branded white chocolate; all of them work. 

Raspberry bakes

With regards to raspberry, my lord… it’s good. The candy, sharp scrumptious nature of a raspberry is simply extremely scrumptious. I’ve, once more, fairly just a few recipes that includes considered one of my favorite issues on the planet (the raspberry) from my raspberry brownies, to my raspberry ripple cake, to my raspberry Prosecco trifle. 

With regards to fruit being in season, and as I put up this in September, they are surely coming to the tip of the season however you continue to have an opportunity to bake this magnificence now earlier than they actually do exit. I like utilizing fruits in season, however the fantastic half is that you should use frozen raspberries plenty of the time in baking, particularly raspberries. 

I all the time like to make use of recent raspberries in my raspberry crumble bars as they’re really easy to press down and use in a bake, however in the event you don’t wish to use recent, don’t wish to use frozen, you should use freeze dried raspberries in a bake as nicely – they’re wonderful. 

White chocolate & raspberry 

Now, after the entire love for white chocolate, and the entire love for raspberries, can we keep away from how a lot I like them mixed collectively?! No, we actually can’t. The sweetness of the white chocolate, the sharpness of the raspberry, it’s so totally delicious. 

I’ve had an adoration for these two mixed for therefore lengthy that I wished to do a traybake cake model after ENDLESS requests for one, so right here you go. After the success of my white chocolate & raspberry loaf cake, my white chocolate & raspberry cheesecake, and even my white chocolate & raspberry cookies… why not have a traybake cake to go too?! 

Traybake desserts

Traybake desserts are a type of bakes, which can be simply the simplest of the cake world. You principally whack the entire cake combine right into a 9×13″ traybake tin after which bake. They take normally about 40-45 minutes in an oven at 160ºc fan, and it truly is that easy. As a result of it’s one tray, you don’t have to layer every little thing and have a clumsy time adorning. 

My traybake cake habit is actually with my chocolate fudge traybake, my gin & tonic traybake cake and all kinds – and I have a tendency to search out traybake desserts as my absolute go-to. I do know they’re fairly massive, however the fantastic half is you could freeze traybake desserts tremendous simply. They’re nice for events, celebrations and all kinds, and you may actually simply customise the dimensions of the cake slice. 

Sponge combine

The sponge combine is a brilliant easy traditional cake combine, which makes use of the bottom 4 elements of butter, sugar, flour and eggs. I beat my butter and sugar collectively till mild and fluffy, after which add in eggs and flour and blend. I fold by way of the white chocolate and raspberries – and one good tip, in the event you don’t need your raspberries to sink, you’ll be able to coat them in an additional little flour to assist cease them sinking.

• Butter – I take advantage of both a baking unfold, or a room temperature unsalted block butter. 
• Sugar – caster sugar is the traditional to make use of in a cake combine like this because it’s colourless, but additionally provides the sweetness you’re after
• Eggs – I all the time use medium eggs in my baking so I take advantage of 6 on this recipe 
• Flour – self elevating flour is the important thing right here because it has the proper quantity of elevating agent within the flour 
• Raspberries – I take advantage of recent raspberries, as a result of they style completely and totally wonderful
• White chocolate – massive white chocolate chips, for me. You should use a chopped up bar of chocolate although – the tiny chocolate chips you should buy within the grocery store might probably soften into the cake combine

Ornament

For the ornament I went for a easy American buttercream frosting, with a chocolate twist. I like utilizing easy elements as a result of I really like my recipes being accessible to everybody. This can be a thick and spreadable but additionally pipe bale frosting that’s simply totally fantastic 

• Butter – a block of butter is greatest, and a selection must be averted. A margarine is just too comfortable and can create a ‘moist’ frosting
• Sugar – all the time use icing sugar as you need a clean frosting 
• Chocolate – I take advantage of any previous white chocolate that I can soften down clean earlier than mixing into the frosting 

For the remainder of the ornament, I went in all probability extra easy than common nevertheless it’s a easy sprinkle of some additional recent raspberries, some additional white chocolate chips after which some freeze dried raspberries. You may after all swap this up, however I went easy.
