Step 6- Add the dry ingredients and the wet ingredients into the batter 3 separate times. Mix on a low speed each time for 15 to 20 seconds or until combined. Scrape down sides of bowl during and after the mixing.
Preheat oven to 320 degrees.

Making the Crème Chantilly Cheese mixture
Step 10- Add 8 ounces cream cheese (Cold and cubed),
8 ounces Mascarpone cheese (Cold) and
3/4 cup confectioners’ sugar into a medium sized bowl. Stir with sturdy spoon until combined. If not, you can mix with your mixer on the lowest setting for 1 minute.
Add 2 teaspoons vanilla extract,
1/4 teaspoon cake batter extract (optional) ,
3/4 cup confectioners’ sugar and
1/8 teaspoon salt.
Stir with a sturdy spoon until combined and set aside. You can also place this into your fridge for 5 to 10 minutes to keep it cold.
Important notes-Chill mixing bowl before adding ingredients. Do not attempt to decorate your cake if the Chantilly crème is runny or weeping. *There’s a troubleshoot step below to help.
Step 11- Add 4 cups heavy whipping cream, and cheese mixture , into cold bowl fitted with whisk attachment. Mix on a low for 1 minute. This will allow the cheese mixture and heavy whipping cream to come together. Once done, turn mixer up to highest setting and mix on high speed for 4 minutes or until the mixture has thickened. Chill for 1 or 2 hours or you can make this 1 to 2 days in advance
Step 12- Add a small amount of simple syrup to each layer and then add 1-1/4 cups Chantilly crème per layer of cake and spread around as evenly as possible with offset spatula. Decorate sides if desired.
Lightly brush simple syrup on top of fruit with a pastry brush. Once done place cake into fridge for 8 to 10 hours before serving.
Let come to room temperature about 30 minutes to 1 hour before serving.
*Troubleshoot- If your crème Chantilly becomes runny or if it weeps at any given time, do not panic. It can be fixed. Place mixing bowl into fridge for 30 minutes to an hour. Once time is up, remove from fridge and mix on the highest setting for 3 to 4 minutes or until mixture thickens. Do not attempt to decorate your cake if the mixture is runny.

Absolutely a beautiful cake, you transform a cake into beauty. Thank you for sharing your cake video with us. God bless 🙏
Deb, thank you so much for watching!!🥰
Gorgeous! I saw one baker use a spray bottle for the simple syrup, using 6-7 light sprays, as it keeps the cake from being dry and evenly distributes the syrup. I would like to say, your demo was great and easy to follow. Thanks for not editing out the mistakes. It helps me to know it happens to great bakers, too. I truly enjoyed watching and learning from you. ❤
Thank you Donna!! That is a great idea to use a spray bottle!!! I will use one the next time I make this!! I’m so thrilled that you enjoy watching and even happier if I helped you in any way!!🥰
