Base

Method

Base Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13 inch baking pan.

  2. 2

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk until well mixed.

  3. 3

    Combine Wet Ingredients

    In another bowl, whisk together the milk, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and eggs until smooth.

  4. 4

    Combine Mixtures

    Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined.

  5. 5

    Bake Base

    Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and smooth the top. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Filling Preparation

  1. 6

    Prepare the Filling

    In a mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.

  2. 7

    Whip Cream

    In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully combined.

  3. 8

    Spread Filling

    Once the base has cooled, spread the cream cheese filling evenly over the top.

Topping Preparation

  1. 9

    Prepare Ganache

    In a small saucepan, heat heavy cream until just simmering. Pour over chocolate chips in a bowl and let sit for a few minutes before stirring until smooth.

  2. 10

    Add Topping

    Drizzle the chocolate ganache over the cream cheese filling. Top with fresh berries and dust with powdered sugar.
