CORNMEAL CAKE WITH SWEET ROSEMARY SYRUP AND BLACKBERRIES



Cornmeal Cake with Sweet Rosemary Syrup and Blackberries image

Categories     Cake     Mixer     Egg     Dessert     Bake     Blackberry     Rosemary     Cornmeal     Gourmet

Number Of Ingredients 14

For cake
1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter, softened
1 cup sugar
1 cup yellow cornmeal
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs
1 large egg yolk
2/3 cup milk
Sweet Rosemary Syrup
Accompaniments
lightly sweetened whipped cream
2 half-pints blackberries

Steps:

  • Make cake:
  • Preheat oven to 350°F. and butter and flour an 8- by 2-inch round cake pan.
  • In a large bowl with an electric mixer beat together butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add remaining cake ingredients and beat on low speed until combined. Beat batter on high speed until pale yellow, about 3 minutes.
  • Pour batter into prepared pan and bake in middle of oven 40 minutes, or until a tester comes out with a few crumbs adhering.
  • Make Rosemary Syrup while cake is baking.
  • Cool cake in pan on a rack 10 minutes. Invert cake onto hand and return, right side up, to rack. While cake is still warm, gradually brush 1/3 cup syrup over it, allowing syrup to soak in before adding more. Chill remaining syrup in a small pitcher, covered. Syrup-soaked cake may be made 1 day ahead and kept wrapped in plastic wrap at room temperature.
  • Serve cake, cut into wedges, with whipped cream, blackberries, and remaining rosemary syrup.

Tips:

  • Always use fresh blackberries. Fresh berries will have a deeper flavor and a better texture than frozen or canned berries.
  • Be sure to rinse the blackberries thoroughly before using them. This will remove any dirt or debris that may be on the berries.
  • If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
  • Be careful not to overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cake tough.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking can make the cake dry.
  • Let the cake cool completely before serving. This will allow the flavors to develop and the cake to set.

Conclusion:

Blackberry cornmeal cake is a delicious and easy-to-make cake that is perfect for any occasion. With its moist texture, sweet and tart flavor, and beautiful presentation, this cake is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
