Ingredients:
- 1 cup blackberries
- 1 cup wine (preferably blackberry wine)
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 4 eggs
- 1 cup vegetable oil
- 1 box cake mix (any flavor, but vanilla or yellow cake works well)
- 3-4 tablespoons water (optional, if needed for cake mix)
Instructions:
-
Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a bundt pan with cooking spray or butter.
-
Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the cake mix, eggs, vegetable oil, and water (if using). Mix until well combined.
-
Add Blackberries and Wine: Gently fold in the blackberries and 1 cup of wine into the cake batter. Mix until evenly distributed.
-
Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan. Smooth the top with a spatula. Place it in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Prepare Glaze: While the cake is baking, prepare the glaze. In a small bowl, mix together 1 cup of powdered sugar with 1 tablespoon of blackberry wine until smooth. Adjust the consistency by adding more powdered sugar or wine as needed.
-
Remove from Oven: Once the cake is done, remove it from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes.
-
Release from Pan: Carefully invert the cake onto a serving plate or cake stand. If necessary, gently tap the bottom of the pan to release the cake.
-
Apply Glaze: While the cake is still warm, drizzle the prepared glaze over the top, allowing it to drip down the sides.
-
Optional Enhancement: For an extra burst of blackberry flavor, before adding the glaze, slowly pour some additional wine over the warm cake. This step enhances the flavor and moisture of the cake.
-
Garnish: Garnish the cake with fresh or frozen blackberries, if desired. For added flavor, soak the berries in a bit of wine and powdered sugar before garnishing.
-
Serve: Slice and serve this decadent blackberry wine cake as a delightful dessert for any occasion.
