    Cake:

    Mix 2 whole eggs and 2 yolks with oil, sour cream, and sugar Add cake mix and water. Mix for 2 min.
  • 5
    Beat egg whites until stiff, fold into batter. Pour batter into pans. Bake 10-12 min or until done. DO NOT OVER BAKE ( it will dry the layers out )

    Topping: Pour cream into large bowl ( I put my bowl and beaters in the refrigerater so they are ice cold, your cream will whip faster if everything is cold.) Add sugar and vanilla beat until thick and has stiff peaks.

    STACKING the CAKE: Put 1st. layer on cake plate, poke holes in cake with a fork.
  • 8
    Spoon blackberry juice over layer and cover with berries,( single layer of berries) Add 1/3 of whipped cream on top of berries, add next layer and do the same. Top layer I cover w/berries and juice but I only put the whipping cream around the edge so you can see the blackberries.
