    Copied from Half Baked Harvest’s Smashed Raspberry White Chocolate Cake recipe online:

    1. Preheat oven to 350° F. Grease 3 (8-inch) round cake pans. Line with parchment paper, then butter.
    2. In a large bowl, beat together the coconut oil, yogurt, eggs, sugar, buttermilk, and vanilla. Add the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix until just combined. Fold in the raspberries and swirl in 3/4 cup raspberry jam, leaving a few streaks of jam throughout the batter, it shouldn’t be fully incorporated.
    3. Divide the batter among the 3 cake pans and bake for 30-35 minutes, until the tops are just set and no longer wiggly in the center. Remove and let cool for five minutes. Run a knife around the edges of the pan and turn the cakes out onto a cooling rack. Cover and let the cakes cool completely before assembling.
    4. To make the frosting. In a bowl, beat together the butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy. Add the melted white chocolate and vanilla, and beat until combined.
    5. To assemble, place one cake layer on a serving plate. Spread 1/3 of the frosting over the cake and layer with about 1/4 cup of jam. Repeat with the remaining cake layers. Be careful not to overfill your layers or the cake will be hard to slice. Lightly frost the outside of the cake, then decorate with smashed raspberries. Chill 30 minutes. Serve or store in the fridge for up to 3 days.

    This is the first time I’ve seen half baked used to actually refer to baking something halfway or so it’s not set lol

  15. matt-r_hatter

    As soon as I saw that my mind immediately thought white chocolate raspberry. My brain knows cake! Lol. That looks beautiful. I bet it tastes even better.

    Just wanted to say that the idea of a cake picnic intrigues me to no end and I feel like if I went to one, I would finally find my people.

    Half baked harvest is a really awful person to support. Please don’t. She needs inpatient mental health treatment and needs to stop promoting eating disorders.

  23. MoreMetaFeta

    Nice cake!

    I follow Cake Tour on Instagram, so I know about Cake Picnic. But I don’t get the references in the comments to::: court findings, Uber drivers, keys to the city…..

  24. costumedcat

    Fun! There was just a cake picnic here (Seattle).

  25. No_Thought_4785

    Looks like you got tired of shaving the Lindt white chocolate shards and just threw the leftover chunks on top. But, sounds delicious.

  26. muffinie

  31. igiveupmakinganame

    I’m scarred by that one person who made a Bologna cake and my first thought when I saw this was “oh no not again.” Like I initially thought this was like a ham, cheese and mayo cake. But then I realised it wasn’t and now it’s beautiful and I want a slice.

    I keep getting suggestions from the protein subreddit and I’ve seen so many unsolicited protein cake pics that I assumed this was a ground beef “cake” with either cheese or butter shavings lmao. Knowing it’s not that, I would love to try a piece lol
