Lemon Lush Cake with Floating Blueberries
This lemon lush cake with floating blueberries is pretty to serve and tastes so decadent yet, simple to prepare. Enjoy every lemony bite!
Today I’m sharing with all of you another recipe that is from my dear and talented friend Regina.
If you have been on my blog before, than you know there are so many of Regina’s delicious recipes to see. Both sweet and savory.
You can go to the search bar, upper right and just put in Regina. A bunch of recipes will pop up.
Down below, I will share with you a few of my favorites that Regina shared on the blog.
Now, getting back to this amazing recipe. Regina came across this moist and delicious cake recipe that was delicious on it’s own and then turned it into a delectable lemony lush cake with lots of bursting blueberries.
This recipe is the original. But, it can easily be doubled for a larger crowd. If you are going to double the recipe, you will use an 9 X 13 rectangle baking dish. For the recipe below, you will use a square baking dish.
I like using a glass baking dish for two reasons. First, you can see the recipe and serve right from the baking dish. Second, I find glass baking dishes clean up much easier than a aluminum pan or even a stainless steel pan. But, that’s just my preference. These two happen to be the square and rectangle baking dishes I use for cakes, brownies, and so much more.
