Ingredients

Servings

For the Lemon Cake

  • 26.5 ounces yellow cake mix (2 (13.25-ounce) boxes)
  • cups water
  • ¼ cup lemon juice (from 2 lemons)
  • 2 teaspoons lemon from 1 lemon, zest
  • cup vegetable oil
  • 6 large egg

For the Blackberry Cream Cheese Frosting

  • 16 ounces cream cheese room temperature (2 bricks)
  • 1 cup butter room temperature (2 sticks, unsalted
  • cups powdered sugar
  • 1 cup blackberry fresh
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract pure
  • teaspoon kosher salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Prep 3 (9-inch) round cake pans by spraying them with nonstick spray. Set aside.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cake mix, water, lemon, oil, and eggs.
  3. Evenly divide the batter between the 3 prepped cake pans (about 545 grams per pan).
  4. Place into the preheated oven to bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean or with moist crumbs. Set aside to cool.
  5. Make the blackberry frosting by adding all of the frosting ingredients to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle or whisk attachment. Beat on high for 4 minutes.
  6. Once the cakes are cooled, remove from the pans. Place one cake layer on a plate or cake stand.
  7. Spread about ¼ cup of the frosting over the cake. Top with a second layer of cake and spread more frosting on it. Top with the last cake layer. Spread the remaining frosting on the top and around the sides of the cake.
  8. Top with lemon slices and blackberries if you so desire. Slice and serve!

Notes

  • Storage: Store lemon blackberry cake in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
