Description

A delightful dessert combining the sweetness of blueberries, rich chocolate, and aromatic lavender, perfect for special occasions.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup whole milk
  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries
  • 1 tbsp dried culinary lavender
  • 1/2 cup blueberry jam
  • 2 cups cream cheese frosting
  • Fresh blueberries & lavender sprigs for garnish
  • Chocolate ganache (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease two 8-inch round cake pans.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cocoa powder.
  3. In a separate bowl, beat the softened butter and sugar until fluffy. Then, add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Add the vanilla next.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the sour cream and milk. Mix until just combined.
  5. Carefully fold in the fresh blueberries.
  6. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  7. Allow the cakes to cool on a wire rack.
  8. Once cool, spread cream cheese frosting on top of one cake layer, then place the second layer on top.
  9. Frost the top and sides of the cake with lavender-infused frosting.
  10. Decorate with fresh blueberries, lavender sprigs, and drizzle with chocolate ganache if desired.

Notes

Ensure butter is softened for easy mixing. Use culinary lavender for cooking. If the cake seems dry, add more milk or sour cream.
