RED, WHITE AND BLUE MINI LAYER CAKES
We took a classic red velvet cake and turned it into red and blue velvet for July 4th! These individual cakes come together by punching out small cake circles and layering them together with a delicious cream cheese frosting.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350˚ F. Make the cakes: Spray two 9-by-13-inch baking pans with cooking spray; line the bottoms with parchment paper and spray the parchment with cooking spray. Combine the cocoa powder and hot water in a small bowl and whisk until smooth; let cool slightly. Whisk the flour, salt and baking soda in a large bowl. Combine the vegetable oil, granulated sugar, buttermilk, eggs, vanilla and vinegar in another large bowl, then add the cocoa mixture and whisk until very smooth. Add the flour mixture and whisk until smooth.
- Divide the batter evenly between 2 medium bowls. Whisk 2 teaspoons red food coloring into one bowl until combined. Whisk 2 teaspoons blue food coloring into the other bowl until combined; add more blue food coloring, 1/4 teaspoon at a time, to make the batter royal blue.
- Evenly spread the red batter in one pan and the blue batter in the other. Bake until the cakes spring back when gently pressed and a toothpick inserted into the centers comes out clean, about 15 minutes. Transfer to racks and let the cakes cool 10 minutes in the pans; carefully turn out the cakes onto the racks to cool completely. Remove the parchment.
- Transfer one cake to a cutting board. Starting at the very edge of the cake, use a 3-inch round cutter to cut out 12 rounds. (Do not leave any space between the rounds when cutting.) Repeat to cut out 12 rounds from the other cake.
- Make the frosting: Beat the cream cheese and butter in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until well combined. Add half of the confectioners' sugar and the salt and beat on low speed to combine. Beat in the remaining confectioners' sugar, then increase the speed to medium high and beat until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the vanilla and beat until combined, about 30 seconds.
- Assemble the cakes: Spread about 2 heaping tablespoons frosting on the top of each cake round. Stack them in tiers of three, alternating red and blue layers (some cakes will have 2 blue layers and some will have 2 red). Top with sprinkles.

Steps:
- For the cake: Prepare an ice-water bath. Combine lemon juice, 3 cups blueberries, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring gently, until sugar dissolves and juices thicken, about 8 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl, and set in ice-water bath, stirring occasionally, until cooled. Reserve 1/4 cup of cooled blueberry juice from the berries in a small bowl, cover, and refrigerate.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter an 18-by-13-inch rimmed baking sheet, line with parchment, and butter parchment. Whisk cornmeal, baking powder, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 cup flour in a medium bowl. Cream butter and remaining 1 1/4 cups granulated sugar with an electric mixer until light and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Add eggs, 1 at a time, mixing well to incorporate after each addition. Add vanilla, and scrape down sides of bowl. Lower the speed to the lowest setting, and beat in 1/2 the flour mixture, then the yogurt, and then the remaining flour mixture, mixing well after each addition.
- Gently fold remaining 1/2 cup flour and 2 cups blueberries into the berry mixture, until well combined. Fold the berry-flour mixture into the cornmeal batter with a spatula, until uniformly purple. Spread evenly in baking sheet, and bake, rotating halfway, until the top is golden brown and the sides pull away from the pan, 28 to 30 minutes. Transfer baking sheet to wire rack, and let cool completely. Cut 24 circles using a 2 1/2-inch round cutter; discard scraps.
- For the cheesecake: Line an 18-by-13-inch rimmed baking sheet with parchment leaving a 1-inch overhang. Beat the cream cheese with a mixer on medium-high until completely smooth, 4 to 5 minutes. Beat in confectioners' sugar, honey, yogurt, and salt, and beat until smooth, about 3 minutes. Gently whisk in 1/2 of the whipped cream, then fold in remaining whipped cream until well incorporated. Scrape batter onto baking sheet, and smooth. Freeze, uncovered, until firm, at least 1 hour (or up to 1 day, covered). With the same round cutter, cut out 24 circles, dipping cutter into hot water and wiping dry between cuts.
- For the compote: Toss raspberries and blueberries with reserved 1/4 cup blueberry juice.
- Place 1 cake round, browned side down, on a plate. (Trim cakes to make level, if necessary.) Top cake round with a frozen cheesecake round; repeat to make 4 cake-cheesecake layers. Refrigerate composed cakes while quickly finishing assembly of remaining cakes. Top each cake stack with berry compote. Serve immediately.
