Devin's Desert

This is the dessert I made for Devin's birthday party. It's pretty yummy!

Cake:

3/4 c butter, softened
2 eggs
2 3/4 c All purpose flour
1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1 1/2 c sugar
2 tsp. vanilla
1 1/4 c buttermilk or sour milk
1 small can sprite (8 oz, I think)

Allow eggs and butter to come to room temperature. Meanwhile grease 9X13 pan WELL. In a medium bowl stir together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In large mixing bowl beat butter, than add sugar and vanilla, beat until fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time mixing well after each addition. In a measuring cup, Mix 3/4 cup Sprite with Buttermilk. Alternately add flour mixture and buttermilk mixture to butter mixture until just combined. Pour into pan then pour the rest of the sprite on top.

Bake for 30-50 minutes (the recipe says 50, but mine was done in 30). Cool Completely

Pudding mixture:

2 pkgs white chocolate instant pudding
3 cups cold milk
whipping cream

Mix together pudding and milk and allow to set. Whip the cream. Fold in about 1 cup of the unsweetened whipped cream.

Sweeten the rest of the cream with powdered sugar and vanilla for topping.

To Assemble:

Put cake on bottom (it will crumble so let it!). Put fruit on top of that (any fruit will work, but I really like blueberries, they make it taste like a blueberry cheese cake to me.....oh and frozen works well too). Then put pudding mixture on top of that and top with whipped cream and enjoy!
