Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.75 cups Granulated sugar
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 cups Unsalted butter
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cups Milk
- 8 ounces Cream cheese, softened
- 0.5 cups Powdered sugar
- 1.5 cups Fresh blueberries
- 1 tablespoons All-purpose flour (for blueberries)
- 1 teaspoons Vegetable oil or melted butter (for greasing)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9-inch round cake pan with vegetable oil or melted butter and line the bottom with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a medium bowl, whisk together 1.5 cups of all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the unsalted butter (room temperature) with an electric mixer until creamy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Mix in the vanilla extract and milk until smooth.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
In a separate bowl, toss the blueberries with 1 tablespoon of flour. This helps prevent them from sinking to the bottom of the batter.
Gently fold the blueberries into the cake batter using a spatula.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, spreading it evenly.
In another bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth and creamy.
Dollop the cream cheese mixture over the top of the cake batter, then gently swirl it into the batter using a knife or skewer to create a marbled effect.
Bake the cake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice, serve, and enjoy your Easy Blueberry Cream Cheese Cake!
