  • 1 Recipe Cream Cheese Icing

Ganache (optional):

  • 4 ounces vegan chocolate
  • 6 tablespoons coconut cream

Directions:

  5. Now it’s time to assemble! Place one layer of the yellow cake on a nice serving platter.

  6. Spread a thick layer of cream cheese icing on top of the yellow cake.

  7. Cut up the fudge brownies into squares and layer them on top of the icing.

  8. Add another layer of cream cheese icing over the brownies, and then place the second layer of yellow cake on top.

  9. Frost the whole cake with any remaining cream cheese icing.

  10. If you’ve made the ganache, drizzle it over the top and sides for that decadent touch.

  11. Chill the cake in the refrigerator for at least an hour. This helps set everything perfectly.

  12. Finally, slice the cake and enjoy your fantastic Raspberry Dream Cake!
