How to Make Lemon Blueberry Cake Hot Honey Butter Sauce

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the lemon juice.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
Gently fold in the blueberries.
Pour batter into the prepared pan and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the cake cool completely in the pan before frosting.
For the Hot Honey Butter Sauce: In a small bowl, beat together the softened butter and hot honey until smooth and creamy.
Once the cake is completely cool, frost with the Hot Honey Butter Sauce. Dust with powdered sugar, if desired.
