Indulge in coffee’s sweeter side! Classic white cake is getting a delicious upgrade this winter season with rich coffee and caramel flavours. Top it off with DIY whipped cream icing—it’s lighter, fresher, and miles better than store-bought.
Toppings (optional): white chocolate and dark chocolate shavings, raspberries
- Preheat oven to 325° F.
- In a large bowl, whisk Happy Birthday Cake Mix with 2 tbsp dessert dip mix, eggs, milk, oil, and vanilla until just combined.
- Scrape batter into lightly oiled 8" round silicone cake pan.
- Bake 40 min, or until a toothpick inserted in centre of cake comes out clean. Cool 10 min before unmolding, then let cool completely.
- Meanwhile, using an electric mixer, beat remaining dessert dip mix, whipping cream, and icing sugar until medium peaks form.
- To assemble, place cooled cake on a large cake stand or plate. Spread top and sides with whipped cream icing, smoothing to edge. Garnish with toppings, as desired.
Medium peaks occur when the whipping cream holds it shape when you lift out the whisk, but the whipping cream gently fold over at the tips.
This recipe yields a generous amount of whipped cream icing to cover the cake. If you have leftover icing, store it in the fridge and use it to top coffee or hot chocolate, or as a dip for fresh fruit!
