White chocolate curls

Homemade raspberry sauce
# Instructions:
01 -
Whip up raspberry sauce early to let it set. Turn on the oven to 350°F. Coat your cake tin (9x13 inch) with butter or spray.
02 -
Use a sifter to work through the flour, baking powder, and salt. Give it a quick stir for good measure.
03 -
First make the butter creamy by beating it. Follow that by blending in sugar until it’s airy. Add sour cream, one egg white at a time, while beating.
04 -
Stir together oil, vanilla, almond extract, and milk. Gradually mix these into the butter, alternating with the dry ingredients until smooth.
05 -
Pour the batter evenly into your pan. Cook for 30-35 minutes until a toothpick pushed in the middle comes out dry. Let the cake cool down totally.
06 -
Heat white chocolate chips and cream in short intervals in the microwave. Stir until silky. Add gel color for fun if you like.
07 -
Melt the white chocolate gently with some cream. Whip the rest of the cream with sugar and vanilla, then carefully fold the cooled chocolate in.
08 -
Poke holes all over the cake’s surface. Layer in raspberry sauce and ganache in alternating stripes. Spread mousse on top, drizzle more sauce and ganache, and sprinkle raspberries and curls of chocolate.
