Description

Discover the simplest way to create a decadent White Layer Cake with Fudgy Brownie. Perfect for any celebration!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 box (18.4 ounces) brownie mix: The foundation that offers a rich, chocolatey base.
  • 1 box (15.25 ounces) white cake mix: Creates a fluffy, light top layer.
  • Decorator’s buttercream: For a smooth and creamy finish.

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Pans:
    • Preheat your oven to 350°F (177°C).
    • Line two 8-inch round cake pans with parchment paper and spray with nonstick cooking spray.
  2. Brownie Layer:
    • Prepare the brownie batter as directed on the package.
    • Evenly divide the batter between the two prepared cake pans.
    • Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes.
  3. Cake Layer:
    • While the brownies bake, prepare the white cake mix according to the package instructions.
    • Remove the pans from the oven and carefully pour the white cake batter over the partially baked brownies.
    • Return the pans to the oven and continue baking for 16-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with crumbs but no wet batter.
  4. Cooling and Frosting:
    • Allow the cakes to cool completely in the pans.
    • Once cool, frost with decorator’s buttercream for a professional touch.

Notes

  • Layer Carefully: When adding the cake mix over the brownie layer, do it gently to prevent mixing the batters.
  • Check Doneness: Since oven temperatures can vary, start checking the cake at the 16-minute mark.
  • Cool Completely: Ensure the cake is completely cool before frosting to avoid melting the buttercream.
  • Prep Time: 10 minutes
  • Cook Time: 28-32 minutes
