- 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)
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, beat the softened butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy.
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then, stir in the vanilla extract.
- Mix in the softened cream cheese until well combined and smooth.
- Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Gently fold in the raspberries, being cautious not to break them apart.
- Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and spread it evenly.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- 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.
- 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.
