Lemon Blueberry Mascarpone Cake

Created by: Howcan Team

Ingredients

  • 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
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups fresh blueberries
  • 8 oz mascarpone cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups of flour, 1 1/2 teaspoons of baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt.
  • In a large bowl, cream together 1/2 cup of softened butter and 1 cup of granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in 2 eggs, one at a time, then stir in 1/2 cup of sour cream, 1/4 cup of fresh lemon juice, 1 tablespoon of lemon zest, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
  • Gradually mix in the dry ingredients until just incorporated. Gently fold in 1 1/2 cups of fresh blueberries. Pour the batter into the prepared pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then turn it out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  • To make the mascarpone frosting, beat 8 oz of softened mascarpone cheese, 1/2 cup of powdered sugar, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until smooth. In a separate bowl, whip 1/2 cup of heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture until well combined.
  • Once the cake has cooled, spread the mascarpone frosting over the top. Garnish with additional fresh blueberries and lemon zest if desired. Slice and serve. Enjoy!

The Lemon Blueberry Mascarpone Cake is a delightful dessert that combines the zesty flavor of lemon with the sweet burst of blueberries and the creamy richness of mascarpone cheese. This cake has its origins in Italy, where mascarpone cheese is a staple in many traditional desserts. The combination of flavors and textures in this cake creates a truly indulgent experience for the taste buds. Renowned chefs like Giada De Laurentiis and Lidia Bastianich have popularized this cake in their recipes, adding their own unique twists to the classic dessert. The cake is often enjoyed in the spring and summer months when blueberries are in season, and it has become a favorite at many upscale restaurants and bakeries around the world. The key to a perfect Lemon Blueberry Mascarpone Cake lies in the balance of flavors and the quality of the ingredients. Fresh, plump blueberries and tangy, fragrant lemons are essential for creating a vibrant and delicious cake. The creamy mascarpone cheese adds a luxurious texture and depth of flavor that sets this cake apart from other desserts. For those looking to try a different approach, some chefs incorporate a lemon-infused syrup to soak the cake layers, adding an extra punch of citrus flavor. Others may opt for a lemon curd filling to add a luscious, tangy element to the cake. Whether enjoyed at a quaint Italian bakery or made at home, the Lemon Blueberry Mascarpone Cake is a true celebration of seasonal flavors and culinary artistry.
