Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour three 9-inch round cake pans.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  4. Gradually mix in the dry ingredients, alternating with the milk. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared pans.
  5. Bake for 20-25 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.
  6. In a small bowl, mix together the raspberry jam, lemon zest, and lemon juice.
  7. Place one cake layer on a serving plate. Spread a thin layer of the raspberry mixture on top. Add a layer of fresh raspberries. Repeat with the remaining cake layers.
  8. In a separate bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar and lemon juice until smooth. Drizzle over the top of the cake.
  9. Let the cake rest for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld together. Enjoy!
