DIRECTIONS:

ABOUT THE MONOGRAM CAKE:

• Warm the oven up to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease two 9-inch round cake moulds generously on the bottom and sides; line with parchment paper and save until needed.
• Mix the baking soda, baking powder, baking flour, and salt together in a big bowl and set it aside.
• Beat the butter on medium-high speed for one minute, or until it is soft and creamy, in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the palette attachment, or in a large bowl using an electric hand mixer.
• After a while, add the sugar. After adding all of the sugar, beat for two minutes on high speed.
• One by one, slowly add the egg whites, beating thoroughly after each addition and scraping down the sides and bottom of the basin as you go.
• Pour the milk, sour cream, almond extract, and vanilla extract into a measuring cup that has been spiked.
• Blend until well blended.
• Three additions of the flour mixture should be made at low speed, beginning and finishing with the flour and alternating with the liquid milk/sour cream mixture.
• Mix until well incorporated. Evenly divide the dough between the ready molds, then smooth the tops.
• Preheat the oven to 250°C or until the cakes are just beginning to turn brown around the edges and a stick inserted in the center comes out clean.
• Allow the cakes to cool in their molds for fifteen minutes on a wire grating.
• After that, flip the cake layers over onto cooling grates and let them cool fully.

Regarding the amaretto-white chocolate buttercream frosting:

• Beat the butter at a medium speed until it’s fully smooth, either in a large bowl with an electric hand mixer or in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the palette attachment. Beat in the baking sugar gradually, slowing down until all of the sugar is well incorporated.
• Beat in the almond extract, cream, salt, and amaretto until smooth. Beat in the white chocolate until it becomes smooth. After all the ingredients are combined, beat for a minute at a medium-high speed.

Attachment and embellishment:

• Each pie should have four equal layers after being cut in half horizontally with a large saw knife. Arrange a cake layer onto a sizable platter or cake stand. Cover the entire cake with 1/2 cup icing, then top the icing with 1/4 cup raspberry jam. Place a second layer of cake on top and continue layering until you reach the final layer. Cover the cake’s edges and top with all of the leftover frosting.
• Gently push the sliced almonds around the cake’s edges using your hands. Finally, add some fresh raspberries on top.
