What a wonderful cake. So light and easy to make. We just can not get enough of this cake. Thanks for sharing.

Yum. So simple and great flavor. My Hubby would have eaten the entire cake on his own, if I would have let him. I used almost double the amount of fresh blueberries and loved that burst of sweet tartness in the light and moist cake.
