Ingredients

Cake Batter

  • 0.5 cup salted butter (softened to room temperature)
  • 0.25 cup granulated sugar (divided)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1.33 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1.25 teaspoons baking powder
  • 0.25 teaspoons salt
  • 0.5 cup full-fat sour cream
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries
  • 1 cup fresh raspberries

Topping

  • 0.25 cup granulated sugar (remaining ¼ cup for sprinkling)

Instructions 

  • Preheat oven to 350ºF (175ºC). Spray a 9-inch round cake pan with cooking spray.
  • In a stand mixer, beat softened butter and 1 cup of sugar until pale and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Add eggs one at a time, then vanilla, mixing well.
  • Whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add to the batter, alternating with sour cream, beginning and ending with flour mixture. Gently fold in berries.
  • Pour batter into prepared pan, sprinkle remaining sugar on top, and bake for 35-40 minutes until golden and center jiggles slightly. Cool completely before serving.
  • Slice the cake and top each piece with whipped cream and extra berries for serving.
