Description

A luscious cake layered with creamy filling, caramel swirls, and crunchy nut coating.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 ½ cups sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 cup butter
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 cup milk
  • 8 oz cream cheese (or mascarpone)
  • 1 cup caramel sauce
  • 1 cup chopped nuts or crushed cookies (for sides)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare three cake pans.
  2. Beat butter, sugar, and eggs until fluffy, then mix in flour, baking powder, and milk.
  3. Divide batter into pans and bake for 25–30 minutes; cool completely.
  4. Prepare filling with cream cheese and whipped cream for a smooth layer.
  5. Assemble cake by alternating cake layers with cream filling and drizzling caramel between.
  6. Frost the outside with cream, pressing crushed nuts/cookies around the edges.
  7. Swirl caramel sauce on top and slice to serve.

Notes

  • Ensure the cake is completely cool before assembling to prevent melting the filling.
  • For a richer flavor, use brown sugar instead of white sugar.
  • Feel free to customize the nuts or cookies based on preference.
