Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease three 8-inch round cake pans with butter, then dust with flour.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon of baking powder, and 0.5 teaspoon of salt.
  3. Beat 0.75 cup of unsalted butter with 1.5 cups of granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Add 3 large eggs one at a time, then mix in 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract and 1 cup of melted white chocolate chips.
  5. Alternately add the flour mixture and 1 cup of whole milk to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined.
  6. Divide the batter among the prepared pans and bake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown.
  7. For the raspberry filling, combine 2 cups of raspberries, 0.5 cup of sugar, the juice of 1 lemon, and 1 tablespoon of cornstarch in a saucepan, cooking until thick.
  8. Beat 0.75 cup of unsalted butter until creamy, then gradually add 3 cups of powdered sugar and a splash of milk, mixing until smooth.
