How to Make Very Berry Lemon Cake
- Drain blueberries, reserving 1 cup of the syrup for the sauce.
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a bundt pan.
- In a large bowl, combine cake mix, 1 cup plain yogurt, and 3 large eggs.
- Beat with an electric mixer on low speed for 1 minute, then on medium speed for 2 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
- Gently fold in 2 cups of well-drained blueberries.
- Pour batter into the prepared bundt pan.
- Bake for 35-45 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 15 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- While the cake cools, prepare the blueberry sauce: In a small saucepan, whisk together 1/4 cup granulated sugar and 1 tablespoon cornstarch.
- Gradually whisk in 1 cup of reserved blueberry syrup, adding water as needed to reach 1 cup of total liquid.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly until thickened and clear (about 2-3 minutes).
- Once the cake is completely cool, dust it with powdered sugar.
- Serve with the blueberry sauce and whipped cream, if desired.
