You will need

3 extra large eggs, at room temperature
¼ cup (60 ml) canola oil
½ cup (125 ml) melted butter
1 cup (250 ml) hot full cream milk
1 x 600 g Ina Paarman’s Vanilla Cake Mix

Method

Vanilla Cake
Adjust the oven rack to the middle position and preheat the oven to 180°C. Butter and line 2 x 20 cm pans with baking paper.

Beat eggs, oil and melted butter together for 30 seconds on high speed until well blended.

Add hot milk and beat briefly on high speed.

Add contents of the Vanilla Cake pack and gently mix in by hand with a spatula. Mix only until combined. It is important not to overmix. The mixture will be fairly soft and runny.

Scrape mixture into prepared pans.

Place in oven. Bake for 25 – 30 minutes. Cakes are done when a thin-bladed knife inserted in the centre comes out clean or cakes pull away slightly from the sides of the pan.

Cool cakes in the pan for 10 minutes. Turn out on a cooling rack.

Keep one cake for another use and slice the remaining one in half horizontally.

 

Whipped Cream

Whip cream before serving.

Half-whip the cream, add Cheesecake Mix and whip until firm.

 

To Assemble

Position the bottom half of the divided cake on a cake plate or stand.

Top with half of the whipped cream and half of the blueberries.

Place the top half of the cake on the berries.

Spread over remaining cream. Sprinkle with remaining blueberries.

Add viola garnish.

Store in an airtight container in the fridge. Can be done the day before.
