Fresh Blueberry Pound Cake

I am a huge fan of pound cake, I am a huge fan of fresh blueberries – so Fresh Blueberry Pound Cake only makes sense.  

This recipe from a friend is to die for, it will literally be gone in one sitting. Then you will have to make a second one to photograph just so you can blog the recipe! No need to ask me how I know this!

This recipe is from not only a friend but the illustrator of Meet Pete, so needless to say a super talented person!  She graciously shared the recipe with a group of us and I asked if I could blog it – because guys you need this cake, you might not know it right now but you need this cake!

I might also add that if you want to push this cake over the top even farther drizzle it in my Blueberry Sauce – I won’t lie though it doesn’t last long enough in this house to have both on hand at the same time!!!

So a key to this cake is to whip it – whip it good!  Whip the crap {that’s an actual technical baking term} out of the butter and then whip the crap out of the butter and the sugar.  You will see it get lighter and fluffier and creamier – not so granulated looking!
