Runner-up Ingredients:
3/4 cup apricot nectar |
1 1/2 cups butter or margarine |
1 (4-ounce) white chocolate bar, broken up |
4 large eggs, lightly beaten |
1 1/2 cups buttermilk |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1/2 teaspoon rum extract |
3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour |
2 1/4 cups sugar |
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda |
1 (3.5-ounce) can flaked coconut |
white chocolate-cream cheese frosting |
2/3 cup seedless raspberry jam |
Directions:
1. Bring apricot nectar and butter to a boil in a large saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat, and add white chocolate, stirring until melted. Gradually stir about one-fourth hot mixture into eggs; add to remaining hot mixture, stirring constantly. Stir in buttermilk and extracts.
2. Stir together flour and next 3 ingredients in a large bowl; add white chocolate mixture, stirring until blended. Pour batter evenly into 3 greased and floured 9-inch round cakepans.
3. Bake at 350° for 20 to 25 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pans on wire racks 10 minutes; remove from pans, and cool completely on wire racks.
4. Spread White Chocolate-Cream Cheese Frosting between layers and on top and sides of cake. Spoon 1/2 cup raspberry jam on top of cake. Drizzle remaining jam down sides of cake. Store in refrigerator.
5. Note: For testing purposes only, we used Ghirardelli white chocolate.
6. Cake may be assembled and frozen up to 1 month. Thaw overnight in refrigerator; add raspberry jam just before serving.
