Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare three 9-inch round cake pans by greasing and flouring them.
In a bowl, whisk together the cake flour, baking powder, and salt.
In a large mixing bowl, cream the unsalted butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
Stir in the vanilla extract, whole milk, sour cream, and the melted white chocolate until well combined.
Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined.
Gently fold in the fresh raspberries and white chocolate chips.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared cake pans and bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely.
For the frosting, beat the unsalted butter until creamy, then gradually add powdered sugar and mix until smooth.
Add heavy cream, vanilla extract, and melted white chocolate, mixing until the frosting is light and fluffy.
Once the cakes are completely cool, stack them, spreading frosting in between layers and covering the top and sides.
Garnish with fresh raspberries before serving.

Notes

Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature for better mixing. You can adjust the sweetness of the frosting by adding less powdered sugar according to your taste.
