Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F. Grease and flour three 8-inch round cake pans.
- In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt; set aside.

- Gradually mix in dry ingredients alternately with milk until just combined.
- Divide batter among prepared pans and bake for 25–30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool in pans for about 10 minutes before transferring to wire racks.
- For the raspberry filling, combine raspberries, sugar, and lemon juice in a saucepan over medium heat until berries break down. Thicken with cornstarch slurry and let cool.
- For frosting, whip butter until creamy, gradually mix in powdered sugar, followed by melted white chocolate and enough milk for desired consistency.
- Assemble by leveling cakes if needed, layering with frosting and raspberry filling between each layer.
