Method
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
- In another bowl, beat the granulated sugar and eggs together until light and fluffy. Add vegetable oil and vanilla extract, and mix until combined.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, until well combined.
- Gently fold in the fresh raspberries into the batter.
- Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Chocolate Drip
- Melt the ruby chocolate with the heavy cream until smooth.
- Once the cakes are cooled, place one layer on a serving plate, spread raspberry filling (if desired), then top with the second layer.
- Pour the melted ruby chocolate over the top, allowing it to drip down the sides.
- Decorate with additional raspberries and serve.
Notes
Serve at room temperature; wipe the knife blade between cuts for clean slices. Store loosely covered in the fridge for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to 1 month.
