  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 1/2 cup oil, canola or vegetable
  • 1 3/4 cups white granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp vanilla paste
  • 5 egg whites, room temperature

  • 2 cups heavy cream

  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 2 1/2 cups strawberries, diced small pieces then measured
  • 3/4 cup blackberries

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350℉. Spray two 8-inch cake pans with baking nonstick spray and line with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, sift together flour, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, beat the butter, oil, and sugar on high speed for 2 minutes until light and fluffy.
  4. Add the vanilla, egg whites, and sour cream, mixing on medium speed until well combined.
  5. Incorporate the dry ingredients and buttermilk, mixing on low speed until just combined. Scrape the bowl to ensure the mixture is uniform.
  6. Divide the batter evenly between the two prepared cake pans and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  7. Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack to cool completely before decorating.

Notes

For best results, ensure all ingredients are at room temperature before mixing.
Feel free to use any combination of berries you prefer for decoration.
Store leftover cake in the refrigerator to keep the cream fresh.
