Ingredients:

For the cake:

  • 1 pkg white cake mix
  • 1 (5 oz-ish) pkg instant white chocolate pudding (or vanilla pudding if you can’t find white chocolate)
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/2 cup oil
  • 1 1/2 cup white chocolate chips, chopped into smaller pieces
  • 2 cups raspberry pastry filling

For the frosting:

  • 1 (8 ounce) pkgs. cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup butter, softened
  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract

Directions:

For the cake:

Grease and flour a bundt pan and preheat your oven to 350F. Mix first six ingredients together with a beater. Fold in white chocolate chips. Fill prepared bundt pan with half of the batter. Spoon half of the raspberry filling in separated spoonfuls over the batter (so it looks like separate clumps of filling over the top). Using a knife swirl the filling through the cake. Do not overdo it! Only swirl around 2-3 times. Pour the remaining batter in evenly and spoon in remaining pie filling, repeating the “swirling” process above. Cook in oven at 350 F for 45-50 mins. (do the “knife test” to determine doneness). If the knife does not come out clean, keep placing back in the oven for 3-5 min at a time until it does. Remove from oven. Let cool for 20 mins. Remove from pan.

For the frosting:

In a medium bowl, cream together the cream cheese and butter until creamy. Mix in the vanilla, then gradually stir in the powdered sugar (start with 2 cups then keep adding more until it is nice and thick).

Note: To get the frosting like in the picture. Fill a pastry bag (a gallon size Ziplock bags work, too!) with the frosting and chill for about 30 minutes. Cut off a bottom corner at about a half inch diagonal cut, depending on how big you want the “frosting strips”. Frost cake by squeezing out the frosting from the outside of the cake toward the middle.

Baker’s Note: It tastes 100 times better if you let the cake sit in the refrigerator overnight before serving.
