Yield Makes 8 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

For cake:
2 cups sifted cake flour (not self-rising; sift before measuring)
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 stick unsalted butter, softened
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 large eggs
1 cup well-shaken buttermilk
For berries:
1/2 cup Fino (dry) Sherry
1/2 cup sugar
4 cups mixed berries, cut if large
For cream:
8 ounces mascarpone (1 cup)
1 cup chilled heavy cream
1/4 cup sugar
Garnish:
confectioners sugar

Steps:

  • Make cake:
  • Preheat oven to 350°F with rack in middle. Butter a 9-inch round cake pan (2 inches deep). Line bottom with a round of parchment paper, then butter parchment.
  • Sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  • Beat together butter and sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer until pale and fluffy. Beat in vanilla. Add eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. With mixer at low speed, beat in buttermilk until just combined. Add flour mixture in 3 batches, mixing after each addition until just combined.
  • Spread batter in cake pan, smoothing top. Rap pan on counter several times to eliminate air bubbles.
  • Bake until golden and a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean, 35 to 40 minutes. Cool in pan on a rack 10 minutes. Run a knife around edge of cake to loosen, then invert onto a plate. Discard paper and reinvert cake onto rack to cool completely.
  • Macerate berries:
  • Bring Sherry and sugar to a boil in a small heavy saucepan, stirring until sugar has dissolved. Put berries in a bowl and pour hot syrup over them, gently tossing to coat. Let stand 15 minutes.
  • Make cream and assemble cake:
  • Beat mascarpone and cream with sugar in a large bowl using cleaned beaters until mixture just holds stiff peaks.
  • Halve cake horizontally with a long serrated knife. Carefully remove top half and reserve. Put bottom half on a plate, then spread evenly with all of cream and replace top half. Serve with berries.

Tips:

  • Make sure all your ingredients are at room temperature before you start baking. This will help the cake batter to come together smoothly.
  • Be careful not to overbeat the egg whites. Overbeaten egg whites will make the cake tough.
  • Bake the cake in a tube pan to allow for even cooking and a light, fluffy texture.
  • Let the cake cool completely before you frost it. This will help the frosting to set properly.
  • For the macerated berries, use a variety of berries for a more complex flavor. Use sweet berries for the best flavor.
  • The mascarpone cream frosting is a delicious and easy way to top off this cake. Make sure the mascarpone cheese is at room temperature before you start making the frosting.

Conclusion:

This angel food cake with macerated berries and mascarpone cream frosting is a light, fluffy, and delicious cake that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With its delicate flavor and beautiful presentation, this cake is sure to impress your guests.
