Blueberry Chocolate Cake
Blueberry Chocolate Cake
"Frosting with blueberry syrup and a good amount of Rum into a smooth mixture of cream cheese and butter. For the cake, I would recommend to use cake flour instead of all-purpose flour for a light and airy structure, which goes great with the homemade frosting."
Notes*The frosting recipe is adapted from Food.com

I feel like we always pair blueberries with lemon or vanilla cakes but chocolate works well too! This past Fourth of July, I had chocolate covered blueberries for the first time and it was life-changing! So, give these flavors a try! Also, if you've never used cake flour before, it's very soft and gives a light, airy texture to cakes.
