Steps:
- Spray a 12-cup bundt pan with nonstick cooking spray - preferably one for baking. This will help ensure a clean release of the bundt cake from the pan.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, or in a large mixing bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed, beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy - about 5 minutes.
- Add one egg at a time, beating after each egg.
- Add salt to the measured flour, whisking to combine and aerate the flour. Then alternately add the flour and heavy whipping cream starting and ending with the flour. Scrape down the sides and mix to combine. Add in vanilla extract and mix until incorporated.
- Start the cake in a COLD oven by placing the cake into the oven, closing the door and heating the oven to 325°F. Bake for 1 hour and 15 mins or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool on a wire rack for 45 minutes before inverting onto a serving plate.
- Top with whipped cream and fresh berries.

WHIPPED CREAM CAKE
At first glance, this cake seems to contain no butter or oil. But on closer analysis, I discovered that the butterfat contained in the cream was more than equal to the usual amount of butter added.

Steps:
- Preheat the Oven:
- Twenty minutes or more before baking, set an oven rack in the lower third of the oven and preheat the oven to 375°F (350°F if using a dark pan).
- Mix the Dry Ingredients:
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the cake flour, baking powder, and salt and then sift them together to make the mixture easier to incorporate.
- Mix the Liquid Ingredients:
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk beater, whip the cream, starting on low speed, gradually raising the speed to medium-high as it thickens, until stiff peaks form when the beater is raised.
- In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs and vanilla just until lightly combined.
- On medium-high speed, gradually beat the egg mixture into the whipped cream. The mixture will thicken into mayonnaise consistency (unless high-butterfat cream is used). Gradually beat in the sugar. It should take about 30 seconds to incorporate it.
- Make the Batter:
- Detach the bowl and whisk beater from the stand. Add half the flour mixture to the cream mixture and, with the whisk attachment stir and fold in the flour until most of it disappears. Add the rest of the flour mixture and continue folding and mixing until all traces of flour have disappeared. Using a silicone spatula or spoon, scrape the batter into the prepared pan. Run a small metal spatula or dull knife blade through the batter to prevent large air bubbles, avoiding the bottom of the pan. Smooth the surface evenly with a small metal spatula.
- Bake the Cake:
- Bake for 25 to 35 minutes, or until a wooden toothpick inserted between the tube and the side comes out completely clean and the cake springs back when pressed lightly in the center. The cake should start to shrink from the sides of the pan only after removal from the oven.
- Cool and Unmold the Cake:
- Let the cake cool in the pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes. With a small metal spatula, loosen the top edges of the cake and invert the cake onto a wire rack that has been coated lightly with nonstick cooking spray. Cool completely. The cake requires no adornment, but I love to serve it with a light dusting of powdered sugar or a large dollop of lightly sweetened Whipped Cream.

Steps:
- Bake cake according to package directions for a 9x13 inch pan; cool on wire rack for 5 minutes. Make slits across the top of the cake, making sure not to go through to the bottom.
- In a saucepan over low heat, combine sweetened condensed milk and caramel topping, stirring until smooth and blended. Slowly pour the warm topping mixture over the top of the warm cake, letting it sink into the slits; then sprinkle the crushed chocolate toffee bars liberally across the entire cake while still warm. (Hint: I crush my candy bars into small chunks as opposed to crumbs - I like to have pieces I can chew on!)
- Let cake cool completely, then top with whipped topping. Decorate the top of the cake with some more chocolate toffee bar chunks and swirls of caramel topping. Refrigerate and serve right from the pan!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees with rack set in lower third of the oven. Brush 12 mini Bundt cake molds with butter and dust with flour; set aside.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Sift flour mixture twice and set aside.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, whip cream on low, until soft peaks form. Gradually increase speed to medium-high as cream thickens, and whisk until stiff peaks form, about 3 minutes.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs and vanilla. With the mixer on medium-high, gradually add egg mixture; beat until thickened (like mayonnaise) and well combined. Gradually add sugar, about 30 seconds.
- Remove the whisk attachment from the mixer. Using the whisk attachment, gently fold half the flour mixture into the cream mixture until flour is dissolved and well combined. Repeat process with remaining flour mixture. Using a large pastry bag, pipe batter into prepared cake molds and run a small metal spatula or dull knife through batter to prevent large air bubbles from forming, avoiding bottom of the pan. Smooth surface evenly with a small metal spatula.
- Transfer pans to oven and bake until cakes springs back when lightly pressed with your finger and a cake tester inserted into cakes comes out clean, 18 to 20 minutes. Transfer cake pans to a wire rack and let cool 10 minutes; cakes will begin to shrink from sides of pan.
- Spray a wire rack with nonstick cooking spray. Using a metal spatula, loosen top edges of cakes and invert onto prepared wire rack. Let cool completely. Serve with whipped cream and berries, if desired.

Steps:
- Place a rack in middle of oven and preheat to 350°F. Butter two 9"-diameter cake pans with unsalted butter, room temperature, then dust with cake flour, shaking out excess. Beat 4 large eggs and 1½ cups (300 g) granulated sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment on medium-high speed until thick, pale, and doubled in volume, 5-7 minutes.
- Meanwhile, whisk together 1½ cups (173 g) cake flour, 2 tsp. baking powder, and 1 tsp. Diamond Crystal or ½ tsp. Morton kosher salt in a medium bowl.
- Pour ¾ cup half-and-half into a heatproof measuring glass or small bowl and heat in microwave in 15-second bursts until hot but not bubbling at all. Pour in ¼ cup vegetable oil. (Alternatively, you can heat half-and-half in a small saucepan over medium before pouring in oil.)
- Reduce mixer speed to medium-low and, with motor running, gradually pour hot half-and-half mixture down sides of bowl; mix until combined. Gradually add dry ingredients, ¼ cup at a time, beating after each addition until just incorporated. Scrape down sides of bowl to make sure there are no dry floury bits. Divide batter between prepared pans; smooth surface.
- Bake cakes, rotating pans front to back halfway through, until risen by 1" and golden brown on top, 15-20 minutes. (These are very light cakes and may not spring back when gently pressed.) Transfer pans to a wire rack and let cakes cool in pans 30 minutes. Run a small knife or offset spatula around inside of pans to loosen cakes, then turn out onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Let cool completely.
- Once cakes are cool, beat 4 cups heavy cream, ¾ cup (83 g) powdered sugar, and ¼ tsp. Diamond Crystal or Morton kosher salt in clean bowl of stand mixer fitted with clean whisk attachment on medium-high speed until medium peaks form, about 3 minutes.
- Place 1 cake layer on a large plate or cake stand and spread a 1" layer of whipped cream on top with a small offset spatula. Arrange 1 cup sliced hulled strawberries in a single layer over whipped cream. Place second cake layer on top and spread top and sides of cake generously with whipped cream.
- Transfer remaining whipped cream to a piping bag fitted with the tip of your choice or a resealable plastic bag with a corner snipped off, if desired, and decorate top of cake with swirls or other patterns. Arrange fresh fruit (such as sliced strawberries and kiwis and/or whole raspberries and/or blueberries). Chill cake 1 hour before serving.
Tips:
- Make sure the cream is very cold before whipping. This will help it whip up faster and produce a stiffer whipped cream.
- Use a clean bowl and beaters. Any grease or residue can prevent the cream from whipping properly.
- Whip the cream on high speed until stiff peaks form. This means that the peaks of the whipped cream will stand up straight when you lift the beaters out of the bowl.
- If you are using a stand mixer, start on low speed and gradually increase the speed to high. This will help prevent the cream from splattering.
- If you are making a layer cake, chill the layers before assembling. This will help prevent the cake from sliding around and make it easier to decorate.
- When decorating the cake, use a piping bag fitted with a star tip to create beautiful swirls and designs.
Conclusion:
Whipped cream cake is a delicious and versatile dessert that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With a few simple tips, you can make a whipped cream cake that is both beautiful and delicious. So next time you are looking for a special dessert, give whipped cream cake a try!
