The name says it all, this cake is incredible! If you prefer a less sweeter cake use just 2 cups sugar. If you are using frozen blueberries then do not thaw them, the cake might need to be baked longer if using frozen berries. Please lemon-flavor yogurt only for this! Ingredients:
2 1/4 cups sugar |
1/2 cup butter, softened |
4 ounces cream cheese, softened |
3 large eggs |
1 large egg white |
3 cups flour, divided |
2 cups blueberries (fresh or frozen, preferably fresh) |
1 teaspoon baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon baking soda |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 (8 ounce) carton lemon yogurt (low-fat is okay) |
3 teaspoons vanilla |
1 cup powdered sugar |
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice |
Directions:
1. Set oven to 350°.
2. Grease a 10-inch tube pan.
3. In a bowl beat the sugar with butter and softened cream cheese until fluffy (about 5 minutes).
4. Add in eggs and egg white one at a time until blended.
5. Add in the vanilla.
6. In a small bowl toss the blueberries with 2 tablespoons flour (removed from the 3 cups flour) set aside.
7. In another bowl mix the remaining flour with baking powder, baking soda and salt; add to the creamed mixture along with the yogurt, beginning and ending with the flour.
8. Fold in the blueberry mixture.
9. Transfer the mixture prepared tube pan.
10. Bake for about 1 hour and 10 minutes or until cake tests done.
