Recipe Review: Natasha's Kitchen - Blueberry Lemon Cake

"Learn how to cook -- try new recipes, learn from your mistakes, be fearless and above all, have fun." - Julia Child

Hi everyone! 

I know, it's been a while - a long while. I'm back with a new series which I'm calling "Recipe Review". This will be where I share my thoughts on recipes I find on this wonderful thing we call the internet. 

This first recipe I'm going to be reviewing is a Blueberry Lemon Cake from Natasha's Kitchen. Below you will find her exact shared recipe followed by some thoughts I have.


Blueberry Lemon Cake

Prep time: 15 mins Cook time: 55 mins Total time: 1 hour 10 mins

This Blueberry Lemon Cake is loaded with 1 pound of blueberries and every bite has sweet pops of juicy blueberry and fresh lemon flavor. It's not too sweet and not too tangy, but just right.
