Chantilly cake; white cake donuts are turned upside down, then filled with an almond-infused cream frosting, and topped with fresh berries! The donuts are perfectly golden and slightly crisp on the outside, while the inside is soft and moist. The almond-infused cream frosting is creamy and smooth, with a subtle nutty flavor that complements the sweetness of the cake donuts. The fresh berries add a pop of color and a burst of freshness, making each bite a delightful mix of textures and flavors. The cake donuts are arranged neatly in a small, charming basket, making them perfect for a special occasion or a cozy afternoon treat.
Ingredients
- • 1 15.25 oz box white cake mix
- • 4 Tbsp melted butter
- • 3/4 cup buttermilk
- • 2 eggs
- • 1/4 cup softened butter
- • 4 oz softened cream cheese
- • 4 oz softened mascarpone cheese
- • 1 3/4 cups powdered sugar
- • 1 tsp almond extract
- • Assorted berries
Steps
- 1.Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray two 6 cavity donut pans and set aside.
- 2.In a bowl, stir together the white cake mix, melted butter, buttermilk and eggs. Place cake in a piping bag and fill each donut cavity 3/4 full. Bake donuts for 12 minutes or until golden. Allow donuts to cool in pan for 3-5 minutes before turning onto a cooling rack. Repeat with remaining batter. It's ok if the donut center fills in during baking; this will keep the filling in place.
- 3.In the bowl of a stand mixer, beat together butter, cream cheese, and mascarpone. Mix in powdered sugar and almond extract. Continue to mix frosting until smooth and creamy.
- 4.Place a dollop of frosting in the center of each cake. Top with an assortment of berries and a dusting of powdered sugar.
- 5.Serve immediately.
