How to prepare Blueberry Overload Cream Cake

Ingredients:

🥚 3 large eggs
🍚 1 cup (200 g) granulated sugar
🥛 1/2 cup (120 ml) milk
🌽 1/2 cup (120 ml) vegetable oil
🌿 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
🍰 2 cups (260 g) flour
🥄 1 packet baking powder
🧂 A pinch of salt
🫐 2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries
🍬 1/2 cup granulated sugar (for filling)
🍋 1 tablespoon lemon juice
🌾 1.5 tablespoons cornstarch
💧 2 tablespoons water
❄️ 400 ml cold cream
🧀 200 g cream cheese or mascarpone
🍭 1 cup powdered sugar
🌼 1 teaspoon vanilla (for cream)
🫐 Fresh blueberries (for topping)
🫐 Blueberry sauce (for topping)

Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans. 🍰
In a bowl, whisk together the eggs and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. 🥚🍚
Add the milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the egg mixture. Mix well. 🥛🌿
In another bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. 🍰
Gently fold in the blueberries until evenly distributed. 🫐
Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. ⏲️
While the cake bakes, prepare the blueberry filling. In a small saucepan, combine the blueberries (for filling), 1/2 cup granulated sugar, lemon juice, cornstarch, and water. Cook over medium heat until the mixture thickens, then set aside to cool. 🫐🍬🍋
Let the cakes cool for 10 minutes in the pans, then remove them and allow them to cool completely on a wire rack. ❄️
In a mixing bowl, whip the cold cream until soft peaks form, then gently fold in the cream cheese (or mascarpone), powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth and creamy. ❄️🧀🍭🌼
Assemble the cake by placing one cake layer on a serving plate. Spread half of the blueberry filling over the layer, then add a generous amount of whipped cream on top. 🥄
Place the second cake layer on top and repeat the process, finishing with whipped cream on top and decorating with fresh blueberries and blueberry sauce. 🫐🍭
