EASY 2-LAYER BLUEBERRY CAKE



Easy 2-Layer Blueberry Cake image

This is a great recipe that is simple and delicious! The base consists of using a box cake mix, so it's easy and saves on time. I did not include the 4 hour refrigeration time in the "prep time". I suggest making the cake before bed and assembling the rest in the morning. I use fresh blueberries, but if they are hard to find, well drained frozen blueberries should taste just as well.

Yield Makes one 10-inch cake

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 sticks (1 cup) unsalted butter, room temperature, cut into tablespoons, plus more for pan
3 cups cake flour (not self-rising), plus more for pans
1 1/4 cups whole milk
4 large eggs, room temperature
1 vanilla bean, seeds scraped
15 ounces blueberries (about 2 1/2 cups)
1 teaspoon cornstarch
1 3/4 cups sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
4 1/2 cups sugar
18 large egg whites, room temperature
3 pinches of kosher salt
12 sticks (6 cups) unsalted butter, room temperature, cut into tablespoons
3 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups black raspberry jam
Burgundy gel food color
Blueberries, black raspberries, and blackberries

Steps:

  • Cake: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter three 10-inch round cake pans; line with parchment. Butter parchment, then dust with flour, tapping out excess. Whisk together milk, eggs, and vanilla seeds. In a separate bowl, toss together blueberries and cornstarch.
  • In the bowl of a mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt on low speed until well combined. Continue beating while gradually adding butter until mixture is crumbly, about 3 minutes.
  • Slowly add half of milk mixture; increase speed to medium and beat until fluffy, about 2 minutes. Slowly add remaining half of milk mixture, scraping down bowl as needed. Beat until incorporated, about 1 minute more. Remove bowl from mixer; fold in blueberries.
  • Divide batter evenly between prepared pans, spreading to edges with a small offset spatula. Tap pans on counter to release any air bubbles. Bake, rotating pans halfway through, until a tester inserted in centers comes out clean and tops are lightly golden, about 30 minutes. Transfer pans to a wire rack; let cool completely. Turn cakes out of pans and remove parchment.
  • Swiss Meringue Buttercream: Combine 1 1/2 cups sugar, 6 egg whites, and a pinch of salt in the heatproof bowl of a mixer set over (not in) a pot of simmering water. Whisk until sugar is dissolved and mixture is warm to the touch and feels completely smooth when rubbed between fingertips, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Transfer bowl to mixer fitted with the whisk attachment; whisk on low speed until foamy. Increase speed to medium-high until stiff, glossy peaks form and mixture has cooled completely, about 10 minutes. Reduce speed to medium-low; add 4 sticks butter, 2 tablespoons at a time, whisking until fully incorporated after each addition. (Don't worry if buttercream appears curdled after all of butter has been added; it will become smooth again with beating.) Whisk in 1 teaspoon vanilla.
  • Switch to paddle attachment. Beat on low speed until air bubbles are eliminated, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl, cover with plastic, and let stand at room temperature. Repeat process twice more with remaining ingredients, using the same amounts each time, then combining all three batches of buttercream in the large bowl and covering with plastic. Remove 2 cups buttercream; set aside.
  • Fold jam into large bowl of buttercream. Add burgundy food color, a drop at a time, until desired color is reached.
  • Assembly:Place a cake layer, bottom-side down, on a cake stand or serving platter. Spread about 1 1/2 cups buttercream over it; top with a second cake layer, bottom-side down, and another 1 1/2 cups buttercream. Finish with a third cake layer, bottom-side up. Evenly spread top and sides of cake with a 1/2-inch thickness of buttercream, smoothing with an offset spatula.
  • Divide remaining buttercream among three bowls, then lighten each with some of the reserved 2 cups white buttercream, creating different shades. Transfer to pastry bags fitted with open and closed star tips in a variety of sizes. Pipe swirls and rosettes of buttercream on top of cake. Frosted cake can be refrigerated overnight; bring to room temperature and top with berries before serving.

Tips:

  • Prepare Ingredients Accurately: Always measure ingredients correctly using the right measuring cups and spoons. This ensures the perfect balance of flavors and textures in your cake.
  • Use Fresh Blueberries: Plump and ripe blueberries yield the best flavor and texture. If using frozen blueberries, thaw them completely and drain off any excess moisture before incorporating them into the batter.
  • Creaming Butter and Sugar: Creaming butter and sugar together until light and fluffy is crucial for a moist and tender crumb. This step incorporates air into the mixture, resulting in a rise in volume and a more delicate texture.
  • Gently Fold in Dry Ingredients: Avoid overmixing the batter once you add the dry ingredients. Overmixing can lead to a dense and tough cake. Gently fold them in until just combined to maintain a light and airy texture.
  • Proper Pan Preparation: Grease and flour the cake pans thoroughly to prevent sticking. This ensures that the cake releases cleanly from the pans after baking.
  • Baking Time and Temperature: Bake the cake layers according to the recipe's instructions. Different recipes may require varying temperatures and times. Keep an eye on the cake during baking to prevent overcooking or undercooking.
  • Cooling before Frosting: Allow the cake layers to cool completely before frosting. This prevents the frosting from melting and ensures a smooth and even application.

Conclusion:

Indulge in the delectable goodness of this two-layer blueberry cake, a symphony of flavors and textures that will tantalize your taste buds. With its moist and fluffy layers, bursting with the vibrant sweetness of blueberries and complemented by a creamy and luscious frosting, this cake is an absolute delight. Whether it's a special occasion or a casual gathering, this blueberry cake is sure to be a crowd-pleaser. Remember, precise ingredient measurements, gentle mixing techniques, proper baking, and cooling times are key to achieving a perfect result.
