BLUE SUEDE CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour two 10-inch cake pans. Whisk the flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking soda together in a bowl.
• Beat the shortening and white sugar with an electric mixer in a large bowl until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, allowing each egg to blend into the mixture before adding the next. Beat in the food coloring, 1 teaspoon blueberry extract, and apple cider vinegar with the last egg. Pour in the flour mixture alternately with the buttermilk, mixing until just incorporated. Pour the batter into prepared pans.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.
• Beat the butter with the confectioners' sugar until smooth. Beat in 1 teaspoon of blueberry extract, then whip until light and fluffy. Once cake has cooled, spread with icing, and sprinkle with chopped walnuts.

Steps:

• Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 375°F. Butter a 9-inch square baking pan.
• Stir together 1/3 cup sugar with water, lemon juice, and cornstarch in a small saucepan, then stir in blueberries. Bring to a simmer, then simmer, stirring occasionally, 3 minutes. Remove from heat.
• Whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and remaining 1/2 cup sugar in a medium bowl.
• Whisk together egg, milk, butter, and vanilla in a large bowl, then add flour mixture, whisking until just combined.
• Spoon batter into baking pan, spreading evenly, then pour blueberry mixture evenly over batter (berries will sink). Bake until a knife inserted into center of cake portion comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes. Cool in pan on a rack 5 minutes.

THE BEST BLUEBERRY CHEESECAKE

Steps:

• Combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter and sugar. Press into bottom and up sides of a 9 inch springform pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 5 minutes. Remove and let cool.
• Beat softened cream cheese and add 1 cup sugar, flour and salt until blended. Add eggs, one at a time and blend.
• Add sour cream, vanilla and lemon extracts. Gently stie in blueberries. Pour mixture into cooled crust.
• Bake at 325 degrees for approximately 50 minutes. (Cheesecake will be done when it still jiggles in the middle.) Turn off oven and let remain in oven with door open for 20 minutes. Remove and let cool. Cover and chill cheesecake in refrigerator.
• Lightly mix Cool Whip and 1/4 cup of sour cream. Spread over cheesecake and refrigerate for at least 6 hours before cutting.

BLUE SUEDE CAKE

Steps:

• Position racks in oven so cake will bake in the middle of the oven.
• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Grease two 9-inch round cake pans, set aside.
• Place flour, cocoa, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in a sifter.
• Sift into a bowl and repeat two more times.
• Whisk well to combine all dry ingredients and set aside.
• In a separate bowl mix butter at medium speed until soft and creamy (about 60 seconds).
• With the mixer running, slowly add the sugar, pausing to scrape down sides.
• Continue beating at medium speed until the mixture is very light and fluffy, about 5 minutes.
• Slowly drizzle in the eggs and beat well, stopping to scrape down the sides.
• Add the vanilla and food coloring and blend well.
• You may wish to add a little red to give a more blueish versus green tone to your cake, depending on your brand of food color.
• Gel food color will not dilute your batter, but liquid food color will work fine too.
• Using the mixer on low speed, fold in about one-third of the flour mixture, then half of the the buttermilk, scraping down the sides of the bowl and folding just until the ingredients are incorporated.
• In the same manner, fold in half of the remaining flour mixture, then the remaining buttermilk, and finally the remaining flour mixture.
• Divide batter evenly between the two pans.
• Smooth surfaces with rubber spatula.
• Bake until each cake layer springs back when lightly touched in the center with your fingertip and a wooden toothpick comes out clean when inserted (about 25-30 minutes).

BOOZY BERRY UPSIDE-DOWN CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Make the cake batter by combining the flour, granulated sugar, milk, sweetened coconut, baking powder, coconut extract, salt, egg and 8 tablespoons butter in a mixing bowl. Beat until well combined, then set aside.
• Add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter to a 10-inch skillet over medium heat. Swirl to coat the base and sides of the skillet. Sprinkle the brown sugar evenly over the butter and drizzle over the tequila. Evenly distribute the berries over the bottom of the skillet.
• Pour over the batter and smooth gently. Bake until golden and a toothpick or skewer comes out clean when inserted in the center of the cake, about 45 minutes.
• Immediately run a knife around the edge of the cake, then put a plate upside down on top of the skillet. Carefully invert the skillet so that the cake is turned onto the plate. (It should come out fairly easily.) Let cool slightly before cutting into wedges and serving warm with canned whipped cream.
