Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a small bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, and vanilla.
- In a standing mixer, stir together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Beat the butter into the flour mixture, one cube at at time. Continue to beat until it resembles coarse crumbs.
- Add the 1/2 of the egg milk mixture and oil and beat the batter is light and fluffy. Add remaining egg milk mixture and vanilla pudding and mix just until combined.
- Take a spatula and scrape the sides of the bowl.
- Spread into greased pans and smooth tops with spatula. May use two or three cake pans (I use three 8 inch cake pans).
- Bake for 16-22 minutes, depending on depth of pans. If the cake layers are thin, they will cook for less time than the thicker layers.
- Let cakes cool. Run knife around edge of cake pan and flip over.
- In a large mixing bowl, whip heavy cream until firm peaks form. Set aside.
- In another large mixing bowl, whip cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla for at least 5 minutes or until creamy and silky smooth. Gently fold in whipped cream until incorporated. Cover and put in refrigerator for 15 minutes.
- Spread a thin layer of jam over each layer.
- Spread chantilly cream over each layer.
- Top each layers with a sprinkling of fresh fruit.
- Using offset spatula, frost entire cake with chantilly cream.
- Top with remaining fresh fruit.
- Place the cake in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
