Description
Delicious homemade blueberry layer cake topped with whipped cream and fresh blueberries.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups fresh blueberries
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat softened butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy.
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Introduce the vanilla extract.
- Slowly add dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with milk, until just combined.
- Fold in the fresh blueberries gently until evenly distributed.
- Divide the batter equally between the prepared pans. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
- Let the cakes cool in the pans for about 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- In a large bowl, beat heavy whipping cream with powdered sugar until soft peaks form.
- Once cooled, place one cake layer on a serving plate, spread a layer of whipped cream on top, and add the second layer.
- Top with more whipped cream and extra blueberries for decoration.
Notes
- Make sure the butter is softened for easier mixing.
- Use fresh blueberries for the best flavor.
