Ingredients
  

Cake Ingredients
  • 1 box vanilla cake mix Check for Halal certification
  • 1 cup fresh raspberries Rinsed and gently patted dry
  • 1 cup whipped cream Make sure it’s a Halal brand
  • 1/2 cup raspberry jam
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Powdered sugar for dusting Optional

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the vanilla cake mix and the ingredients suggested on the box, adding the vanilla extract for flavor. Mix until smooth.
  3. Pour the batter into a greased 9x13 inch baking pan and bake for about 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  4. Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool completely in the pan.
  5. Spread the raspberry jam evenly on top of the cooled cake.
  6. Fold fresh raspberries into the whipped cream and spread this mixture over the raspberry jam layer.
  7. Refrigerate the cake for at least an hour before serving. Dust with powdered sugar if desired just before serving.

Notes

Consider substituting the vanilla cake mix with a lemon cake mix for a zesty twist. Pay close attention to baking time, checking for doneness a couple of minutes ahead of the recommended time to avoid a dry cake.
