Berry Sheet Cake
Step 1: the cake
Preheat oven to 350 F.
Prepare vanilla cake batter, recommended to use:
Best Sour Cream Cake recipe
Or, if you’re in a rush, a white cake mix
Pour the batter into a greased 15”x10” sheetpan. Bake at 350F for 18-23 minutes. Set aside to cool.
Step 2: topping
To the bowl of a stand mixer, add:
2 (8 oz) packages cream cheese, softened
2 Tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp vanilla
Mix together on low for 1 min, scrape sides, add:
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
Continue to mix on low speed until smooth. Pour in:
2 cups heavy whipping cream
Mix on low speed until incorporated, then increase speed to medium-high and whip until thickened. Spread evenly over cooled cake.
Score the topping into ~2” squares, place:
2-3 fresh berries
Within each of the ~2” spaces so that when the cake is cut the berries will remain intact.
Slice & serve.
Brenda tips:
Serving size: 24 - 35 slices
For a fluffier, creamier topping, double the heavy whipping cream
If needed, substitute 1 (8 oz) package cool whip for the heavy whipping cream
