      Instructions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      1. Preheat and Prep<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      Preheat oven to 350\u00b0F (175\u00b0C). Grease and line two 8-inch round cake pans with parchment paper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      2. Mix the Dry Ingredients<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      3. Cream the Butter and Sugar<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      In a large bowl, beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy (about 3\u20134 minutes). Add eggs one at a time, beating well, then stir in the vanilla.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      4. Combine<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      Alternate adding dry ingredients and milk\/sour cream into the batter, starting and ending with dry. Mix until just combined.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      5. Bake<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      Divide the batter evenly between pans. Bake for 25\u201330 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool in pans for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      6. Make the Cream<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      In a cold bowl, whip the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla until stiff peaks form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      7. Assemble<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      Place one cake layer on a plate. Spread a thick layer of whipped cream and top with raspberries. Add the second cake layer and repeat with more cream and berries. For a finished look, frost the sides lightly or leave it naked-style.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Tips for Success<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
        \n
      • Chill the whipped cream and cake layers before assembling for easier handling<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Gently press the berries into the cream so they stay in place<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Want extra raspberry flavor? Add a thin layer of raspberry jam between the layers<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

        Serving Suggestions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
          \n
        • Dust the top with powdered sugar or white chocolate curls<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Serve with raspberry coulis or a drizzle of lemon glaze<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Keep leftovers refrigerated in an airtight container<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
