  • 1 ½ cups sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup fresh blackberries
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
  2. Sift together the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a large mixing bowl.
  3. Combine the buttermilk, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract in another bowl. Mix well.

  5. Fold in the blackberries gently.
  6. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans.
  7. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then remove them from the pans and let them cool completely on a wire rack.
  9. Whip the cream with the powdered sugar until soft peaks form.
  10. Once the cakes are completely cool, spread the whipped cream between the layers and on top of the cake.
  11. Garnish with additional blackberries if desired and serve.
