Time 1h30m

Number Of Ingredients 12

FOR FILLING
2 c fresh or frozen blackberries
1 c white sugar
FOR CAKE
1 c real butter, softened
1 1/2 c white sugar
8 egg yolks
3/4 c milk
1/4 c heavy cream
2-3 tsp real vanilla extract
2 c flour, self-rising
3 Tbsp cornstarch

Steps:

  • 1. Mix 1 cup sugar in with blackberries and set aside while you prepare the cake batter. Grease and flour Bundt pan. Sift together flour and cornstarch and set aside.
  • 2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg yolks one at a time, then beat in the vanilla.
  • 3. Beat in the flour mixture alternately with the milk and cream mixing until incorporated.
  • 4. Pour half of the batter into the Bundt pan. Spoon blackberries onto that batter.
  • 5. Cover the blackberry layer in the Bundt pan with the remaining batter. Bake at 350 for approximately 1 hour. (Adjust time based on your pan and oven. I used stoneware and it took right at an hour to cook.)
  • 6. Cool about 10 minutes and then turn onto a cake server. The blackberries will then be on the top of the cake.
  • 7. Garnish the serving plate with a few blackberries and fill the hole of the cake with more blackberries, if desired. This cake was delicious without a glaze. However, I'm sure a simple glaze would be good with it, too.
