Finding a really good recipe was important to me for two reasons. One, I am obsessed with finding the best recipes and two, I was making this bundt cake for the wonderful ladies coming over to help assemble the care packages for Project Mindful Mama. I wanted to make something homemade and delectable to thank them for all their hard work. Unanimously, everyone fell in love with this bundt cake and requested the recipe. Anxiously making the ladies wait, until now now, because I wanted to make the cake one more time to achieve perfection.
Excuse me for a moment while I go slice myself seconds of this tantalizing bundt cake.
Don’t forget to coat your blueberries in flour to ensure they do not sink 😉
For this gorgeous and delicious bundt cake I made only a few modifications. To ensure that the cake comes out the right texture you must follow directions carefully. Also, make sure to flour and grease your bundt pan so that the cake falls out nice and smooth. Back to those few modifications I made, add more blue berries to the cake mix and no corn syrup in the glaze, and a little more lemon juice. These very simple modifications made this bundt cake unbelievably irresistible to the point where I enjoyed three whole slices myself the next afternoon!
