2 tsp vanilla extract
6 large egg whites, room temperature
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
4 tsp baking powder
1 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp salt
3/4 cup milk, room temperature
1/4 cup water, room temperature
Frosting:

1 1/4 cup salted butter, room temperature
1 1/4 cups shortening
10 cups powdered sugar
1 tbsp vanilla extract
1 tsp ground cinnamon
5–6 tbsp water or milk
Additional:

Instructions:

To Make the Pecan Pie Filling:

In a saucepan, combine all filling ingredients except pecans. Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly until it begins to boil.
Add chopped pecans and allow to boil for 30 seconds.
Remove from heat and refrigerate until cool and thickened.
To Make the Cake Layers:
4. Preheat oven to 350°F (176°C). Grease and line three 8-inch cake pans with parchment paper.

In a large mixing bowl, cream butter and sugars until light and fluffy.
Add sour cream and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.
Gradually add egg whites, mixing well after each addition.
In a separate bowl, combine dry ingredients. Alternate adding dry ingredients and milk mixture to the batter, mixing until well combined.
Divide batter evenly among prepared pans and bake for 21-23 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Cool cakes in pans for 2-3 minutes, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
To Make the Frosting and Assemble Cake:
11. In a large mixer bowl, combine butter and shortening until smooth.

Gradually add half of the powdered sugar, mixing until well combined.
Add vanilla extract, cinnamon, and 3-4 tablespoons of water or milk, mixing until smooth.
Gradually add remaining powdered sugar, mixing until combined.
Adjust consistency with additional water or milk as needed.
Level cake layers, then place one layer on a serving plate. Pipe a dam of frosting around the edge.
Spread 1/3 of the pecan pie filling inside the dam, then smooth out the frosting.
Repeat layering with remaining cake layers and filling.
Frost the outside of the cake, then pipe a border around the top edge.
Fill border with remaining pecan pie filling and decorate with pecan halves.
Refrigerate cake until ready to serve.
Enjoy the irresistible combination of flavors in this Pecan Pie Layer Cake! 🥧✨

💜🤍 Step into the twilight zone with every slice of our enchanting dark chocolate cake, where blackberries and lavender play the starring roles in this delicious galaxy. Ready for a celestial taste journey? 💜🤍

Ingredients:
2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 3/4 cups granulated sugar
3/4 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 cup buttermilk
4 large eggs
2 tsp vanilla extract
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
2 cups blackberry compote, plus extra for coloring the batter
1 tbsp dried lavender, plus extra for garnishing
3 cups cream cheese frosting
1/2 cup blackberry syrup, for drizzle
Fresh blackberries for garnish
Directions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour three 9-inch round cake pans.
Sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
Gradually mix in the sifted ingredients, alternating with the buttermilk. Start and end with the dry ingredients.
Take a portion of the blackberry compote and blend until smooth. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve to create a deep-colored blackberry puree. Mix this into your batter until it reaches a dark chocolate color. If needed, you may add a touch of food coloring.
Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans and smooth the tops. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the cakes to cool in their pans for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
For the lavender cream, infuse some buttermilk with dried lavender and mix it into a portion of the cream cheese frosting.
To assemble, spread a layer of blackberry-lavender cream on the first cake layer. Top with the second cake layer and repeat the process, finishing with the third cake layer.
Frost the top and sides of the cake with the remaining cream cheese frosting. Drizzle blackberry syrup over the top and allow it to gently drip down the sides.
Garnish the cake with fresh blackberries and a sprinkle of dried lavender.
Refrigerate the cake until ready to serve, allowing the flavors to meld and the frosting to set.
