Preheat the Oven

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.

Cream Butter and Sugar

Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.

Add Eggs

In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.

Mix Dry Ingredients

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk and vanilla extract. Mix until just combined.

Combine Ingredients

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

Bake the Cake

Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then turn it out onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Cool the Cake

In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the fresh raspberries, sugar, and lemon juice. Cook until the raspberries break down and the mixture thickens slightly, about 10 minutes.

Make the Coulis

Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to remove the seeds. Set aside to cool.

Strain the Coulis

In a saucepan, combine the heavy cream, whole milk, and sugar. Heat over medium heat until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is warm.

Heat Cream and Milk

In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks. Gradually add a small amount of the warm cream mixture to the yolks to temper them, then whisk the yolk mixture back into the saucepan.

Whisk Egg Yolks

Cook the mixture over low heat, stirring constantly, until it thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla bean scrapings.

Thicken the Mixture

Let the mixture cool, then refrigerate until chilled. Churn in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
