Ingredients

- 2 teaspoon Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Unsalted butter
- 2 cup Granulated sugar
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1.5 cup Buttermilk
- 1 cup Boiling water
- 1 cup Fresh raspberries
- 2 tablespoon Chambord liqueur
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 0.5 cup Powdered sugar
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour three 9-inch round cake pans.
- In a large mixing bowl, sift together the cake flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, cream together the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the buttermilk. Mix until just combined. Stir in the boiling water.
- Divide the batter evenly among the prepared cake pans. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Remove from the oven and let cool in the pans for 10 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- In a small bowl, mash the raspberries with a fork. Stir in the Chambord liqueur.
- In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream and powdered sugar until stiff peaks form.
- To assemble the cake, place one layer on a serving plate. Spread a layer of the raspberry Chambord mixture on top, followed by a layer of whipped cream. Repeat with the remaining layers. Decorate the top with additional raspberries, if desired.
- Allow the cake to rest in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving.
