Raspberry Cream Cheese Coffee Cake is a delightful dessert that combines the richness of cream cheese with the tartness of fresh raspberries.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup fresh raspberries (or frozen, thawed and drained)
  • ½ cup powdered sugar (for topping)
  • ½ teaspoon almond extract (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, beat the softened butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy.
  4. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then, stir in the vanilla extract.
  5. Mix in the softened cream cheese until well combined and smooth.
  6. Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  7. Gently fold in the raspberries, being cautious not to break them apart.
  8. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and spread it evenly.
  9. Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  10. Remove from the oven and let the cake cool in the pan for 15 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
  11. Once cooled, dust the top with powdered sugar for a lovely finish.

Notes

  • This cake pairs well with coffee or tea.
  • You can use frozen raspberries if fresh ones are not available.
