Ingredients Ready for Battle
Sponge cake:
1 tsp unrefined coconut oil, to grease the pan
4 large eggs (room temperature – because we’re not about that mediocre life)
1/3 cup raw honey or pure maple syrup (we’re warriors of taste)
1 Tbsp vanilla extract
1-½ cups almond flour (fuel for champions)
¼ tsp sea salt (to bring out the beast in the flavors)
½ tsp baking soda
Coconut-yogurt cream:
3 x 13.5 oz cans unsweetened coconut milk, chilled in the fridge overnight (because patience is a virtue)
Pinch of sea salt
2 tsp vanilla paste
8-10 drops of liquid stevia, or 1-2 Tbsps pure maple syrup/raw honey, to taste
2 tsp lime zest (for that zesty punch, because legends leave a lasting impact)
To assemble:
1 pint fresh raspberries, rinsed & completely air-dried
3 Tbsps raw honey (pure, unfiltered, savage sweetness)
1-pint blueberries, rinsed and completely air-dried
2-pints strawberries, hulled, sliced & air-dried
The Blueprint for Excellence
1. Preheat your arena:
Heat up that oven to 350°F. Grease an 8-inch round cake pan with unrefined coconut oil – because we only use the best.
2. Command the sponge cake:
Separate the egg whites from the yolks like a skilled tactician. In a mixing bowl, beat those egg yolks with raw honey or pure maple syrup and vanilla extract until you reach legendary smoothness.
In another bowl, combine almond flour, sea salt, and baking soda. Slowly integrate the dry mix into the yolk blend until you have a robust, flawless batter.
In yet another bowl, unleash your inner strength and whip those egg whites into firm peaks. GENTLY fold them into the batter. You’re merging muscle with finesse, after all.
3. Bake to perfection:
Pour the mix into your greased pan and bake for 25-30 minutes. You’re aiming for golden excellence. Let that beauty cool completely.
4. Craft the coconut-yogurt cream:
Open up those cans of chilled coconut milk and separate the rich cream that’s risen to the top. Beat it with sea salt, vanilla paste, liquid stevia, or pure maple syrup/raw honey, and that zesty lime twist until you’ve got yourself a smooth, creamy, and taste-bud-dominating mix.
5. Assemble like a warrior:
Cut the sponge cake horizontally into two layers. Place the bottom layer into a trifle dish. Spread a divine layer of coconut-yogurt cream on it, followed by a smattering of raspberries, blueberries, and strawberries. Drizzle raw honey because we don’t hold back on making things extraordinary.
Place the second layer of cake on top. Repeat the layer of coconut-yogurt cream and finish it off with a wild array of raspberries, blueberries, and strawberries. Every bite should embody the spirit of victory and freedom.
6. Claim your triumph:
Serve this magnum opus to your guests. Watch their eyes light up with awe, admiration, and sheer delight. You’ve not just fed them; you’ve inspired them.
Warriors, this 4th of July, stand tall. Let your culinary skills echo the relentless spirit of excellence. This Berry Trifle Cake isn’t just a dessert – it’s a statement. BE BOLD. BE UNSTOPPABLE. BE LEGENDARY.
Onwards to greatness! 🥄💥🇺🇸
