Equipment

  • Two 8-inch round cake pans
  • Mixing bowls
  • Electric mixer
  • Wire cooling rack
  • Spatula
  • Toothpick

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup whole milk
  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries
  • 1 tablespoon dried culinary lavender
  • 1/2 cup blueberry jam
  • 2 cups cream cheese frosting
  • q.s. fresh blueberries and lavender sprigs for garnish to taste
  • q.s. chocolate ganache (optional, for drizzling) to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease and flour two 8-inch round cake pans.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cocoa powder. Set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition, and stir in the vanilla extract.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with the sour cream and milk, starting and ending with the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  • Gently fold in the fresh blueberries.
  • Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  • Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Frost the first layer with cream cheese frosting, place the second layer on top, and frost the top layer, garnishing with fresh blueberries and lavender sprigs. Drizzle with chocolate ganache if desired.
