Steps:
- Heat oven to 350°F. Grease 8- or 9-inch round pan with shortening; lightly flour. In small bowl, mix flour, baking powder and salt. In medium bowl, beat 1/4 cup butter with electric mixer on medium speed 30 seconds. Beat in granulated sugar, 1/4 cup at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat 2 minutes longer, scraping bowl occasionally. Add egg whites, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in vanilla. On low speed, alternately add flour mixture, one-third at a time, and milk, about one-half at a time, beating just until blended. Spread in pan.
- Bake 35 to 40 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 20 minutes. Crumble warm cake into medium bowl.
- Line cookie sheet with waxed paper. Place chopped chocolate and 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon raspberry vodka in small bowl. In small microwavable bowl, microwave whipping cream and 2 tablespoons butter on High 1 minute or until boiling. Stir until butter is melted. Pour over chocolate mixture; stir until chocolate is melted and smooth. If necessary, microwave on High an additional 10 to 15 seconds until mixture can be stirred smooth. Pour into 8-inch square (2-quart) glass baking dish; cover and refrigerate 1 hour. When firm, use melon baller to create 28 round truffle centers. Place on cookie sheet; refrigerate until needed.
- In medium bowl, beat 1/3 cup butter with electric mixer on medium speed until smooth. Gradually beat in powdered sugar and 2 tablespoons raspberry vodka on low speed until filling is smooth. Stir into crumbled cake until blended. Cover; refrigerate 1 to 2 hours or until firm enough to shape.
- Line cookie sheet with waxed paper. Roll cake mixture into 28 (1 1/2-inch) balls. On sheet of waxed paper, flatten each ball into 3-inch circle. Place truffle in center of each 3-inch circle. Quickly shape circle up and around truffle (overhandling can cause truffle to melt), pinching circle together to seal and sealing any cracks. Place on cookie sheet. Freeze 30 minutes.
- In 2-cup microwavable measuring cup, microwave dark chocolate candy melts as directed on package until melted. Remove several cake balls from freezer at a time. Dip top of each of 14 lollipop sticks into melted dark chocolate and insert 1 inch into each of 14 cake balls. Dip into melted candy to cover; very gently tap off excess. (Reheat candy in microwave or add vegetable oil if too thick to coat.) Place each cake ball in mini cupcake liner. Reserve remaining coating. Repeat with light cocoa candy melts and remaining cake balls. Let stand until set. Use remaining melted candy (remelt, if necessary) to drizzle dark chocolate over light cocoa cake pops and light cocoa over dark chocolate cake pops. Let stand until set, about 15 minutes.

Steps:
- For Glaze:
- Combine cream, butter and sugar in heavy large saucepan. Stir over medium heat until butter melts, sugar dissolves and mixture comes to simmer. Remove from heat. Add chocolate and vanilla. Stir until chocolate melts and glaze is smooth. Let stand until thick enough to spread, stirring occasionally, about 1 hour. (Can be made 1 week ahead. Cover and refrigerate. Before using, whisk over low heat just until spreadable.)
- For cake:
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Butter two 9-inch-diameter cake pans with 2-inch-high sides. Line pan bottoms with waxed paper; butter paper. Stir chocolate in top of double boiler set over simmering water until melted. Remove from over water.
- Sift flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt into medium bowl. Using electric mixer, beat sugar and butter in large bowl until well blended. Add eggs 1 at a time, beating to blend after each addition and occasionally scraping down sides of bowl. Mix in melted chocolate and vanilla. Mix in dry ingredients alternately with buttermilk in 3 additions each. Transfer batter to prepared pans, dividing equally.
- Bake cakes until tester inserted into center comes out clean, about 35 minutes. Cool cakes in pans on racks 10 minutes. Cut around pan sides to loosen cakes. Turn cakes out onto racks; peel off waxed paper. Cool cakes completely. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Wrap tightly and store at room temperature.)
- For filling:
- Using electric mixer, beat cream, powdered sugar, framboise (if desired) and vanilla in large bowl until very firm peaks form. Transfer 1 1/2 cups whipped cream mixture to small bowl and chill. Fold 2 cups raspberries into remaining whipped cream mixture.
- Cut each cake layer horizontally in half. Using large tart pan bottom as aid, transfer 1 layer to platter. Slide waxed paper strips under edges of cake. Spread 2/3 cup chocolate glaze over cake. Spread half of raspberry whipped cream over. Place second cake layer on work surface. Spread 2/3 cup glaze, then remaining raspberry cream over. Place atop first layer, using tart pan as aid. Top with third cake layer, pressing lightly to adhere (reserve fourth layer for another use). Smooth filling at edges of cake. Spread thin layer of glaze over sides of cake. Chill until glaze sets, about 10 minutes.
- Spread remaining glaze over sides of cake. Spread or pipe reserved 1 1/2 cups whipped cream mixture over top of cake. Garnish with additional berries, if desired. Gently remove waxed paper from under cake. Cover cake with cake dome; chill at least 1 hour and up to 8 hours.
RASPBERRY TRUFFLES
As everyone in my neighborhood knows, Christmas is my very favorite time of year. I make many cookies, cakes and candies - including this easy but elegant recipe - to give to relatives and friends. The aroma of the chocolate and raspberry is heavenly when you're making these truffles. -Helen Vail, Glenside, Pennsylvania

CHOCOLATE RASPBERRY MOUSSE TRUFFLE CAKE, RASPBERRY-CASSIS SAUCE
This recipe is the winner, hands down! Just in case you want to know what it is that I'm saying -- this is the dessert that my friend Judy chose for her very elegant dinner party. This is not easy at all! It's very involved but it is so worth it! I can't begin to tell you; takes 3 hours plus baking, cooling and chilling times. Allow the truffle cake to chill overnight before serving. I am posting this for safe keeping. Can be made up to four days ahead of time.
