How to Make Raspberry And Almond Mascarpone Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour three 9-inch round cake pans.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, almond flour, baking powder, and salt.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Fold in the raspberries.
  6. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared cake pans.
  7. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes before inverting them onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. While the cakes are cooling, prepare the mascarpone frosting:
  10. In a large bowl, beat the mascarpone cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. Add more powdered sugar if needed to reach desired consistency.
  11. Once the cakes are completely cool, level the tops if necessary. Place one cake layer on a serving plate or cake stand.
  12. Spread a generous layer of frosting over the first cake layer.
  13. Top with the second cake layer, frost, and then top with the final cake layer.
  14. Frost the entire cake with the remaining frosting.
  15. Garnish with fresh raspberries and sliced almonds (optional).
  16. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
