Ingredients
  

For the Cake:

  • 2 ½ cups 315g all-purpose flour
  • 2 ½ tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ cup 120ml unsweetened soy milk
  • ½ cup 120ml water
  • 4 oz 113g white chocolate, chopped
  • 1 cup 240ml unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 1 ¾ cups 350g granulated sugar
  • 4 large eggs room temperature
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract

For the Frosting:

  • 12 oz 340g white chocolate, chopped
  • 1 ½ cups 360ml unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 5 cups 625g powdered sugar, sifted
  • ¼ cup 60ml unsweetened soy milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions
 

Step 1. Preheat the Oven

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour three 9-inch round cake pans. Optionally, line the bottoms with parchment paper.

Step 2. Prepare the Cake Batter

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  • Heat soy milk and water in a saucepan until simmering. Take it off the heat, add the chopped white chocolate, and stir until smooth. Allow it to cool slightly.
  • In a large bowl, beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
  • Beat in eggs one at a time, then mix in vanilla extract.
  • Gradually add flour mixture to butter mixture in three parts, alternating with white chocolate mixture in two parts. Mix until just combined.

Step 3. Bake the Cake

  • Divide batter between prepared pans. Smooth tops with a spatula.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes until a toothpick inserted comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
  • Cool the cakes in the pans for 10 minutes, then move them to wire racks to cool completely.

Step 4. Prepare the Frosting

  • Microwave white chocolate in 30-second intervals until melted and smooth. Set aside to cool slightly.
  • Beat butter until creamy and smooth.
  • Gradually add powdered sugar, beating until smooth and creamy.
  • Beat in melted white chocolate, soy milk, and vanilla extract until fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 5. Assemble the Cake

  • Put one cake layer on a serving plate. Spread frosting evenly on top.
  • Place second cake layer on top and frost top and sides with remaining frosting. Smooth with a spatula.

Step 6. Decorate and Serve

  • Decorate as desired with white chocolate shavings or fresh fruits.
  • Slice and enjoy your delicious white chocolate cake recipe.
