I have been meaning to do another "cheesecake" cake since the very first time it was featured here on my blog. I finally got a chance to make another version for my dad's birthday cake. This time around, it was a strawberry cheesecake shortcake. Cheesecake and stabilized whipped cream frosting was from my favorite cheesecake book, Junior's Cheesecake Cookbook while the white cake was from one of my go to recipes.
Layer one - Half of a white cake layer + whipped cream frosting + fresh chopped strawberries
Layer two - Strawberry cheesecake
Layer three - More whipped cream frosting + chopped strawberries
Layer 3.5 - Other half of the white cake layer
Lastly, cover in a stabilized whipped cream frosting and decorate as desired.
This cake looks delicious! I love the addition of the cheesecake in the middle layer. YUM! What trick do you do to smooth out your icing layer?
ReplyDeleteHi Jenn, for this cake, I actually just used a spatula. The whipped cream frosting is very forgiving.
