This one came from a local newspaper during a local blueberry festival several years ago. The first glaze soaks into the cake and the second is lke a frosting. Yum!

How To Make the most delicious glazed blueberry cake

  • 1
    Beat butter and sugar together until creamy. Add egg. Mix together flour, salt, baking powder, and spices. Add the dry ingredients alternately with the 1 cup milk, beating well. Coat dry blueberries in about 1/4 cup flour. Add to batter and stir carefully. (Coating the berries prevents them from sinking to the bottom of the cake.)
  • 2
    Pour into greased and floured Bundt or angel food cake pan. NOTE: The batter will only fill the standard pans about half way, which is fine - do not double this recipe. Bake at 375 degrees for 45 minutes. Allow cake to cool 5 minutes then carefully invert onto serving plate.
  • 3
    Glaze One: Combine the 1/2 cup granulated sugar and 1/2 cup lemon juice in a saucepan and cook over medium heat until dissolved. Carefully poke holes in warm cake and brush glaze over all surfaces of the cake as it cools.

    Glaze Two: For final glaze, whisk the confectioner's sugar and 3 1/2 tablespoons lemon juice together. Pour over the top just before serving cake and allow it to drizzle down the side.
