Snacking Cake Made with Prevedelli Farms Blackberries This is from our customer in Saratoga, Her name is Mary. She has added some notes below This is a recipe that I first made last year, and I wanted to send it to you then, but I never got around to it. Today I came home from Saratoga market with some of your berries, and I immediately set out to make this delicious and easy cake. I didn't have any buttermilk in the house, so I made some by adding lemon juice to milk. I may have added too many berries because it was not quite cakey enough and had a tendency to fall apart. I hate to admit it, but I ate almost half of the cake for my lunch. !!!!!! Pictures are from Mary attempt at making this cake. The recipe comes from the following blog http://www.amateurgourmet.com/2012/07/blackberry-buttermilk-snacking-cake.html
