Blueberry Butter Pecan Cake With Cream Cheese Frosting

 

I wanted the blueberries to be the star of this cake recipe and now I believe the whole cake is the star. When I  started to develop this recipe, it was going to be a different cake. I ended up taking it in an entirely different direction with the fresh blueberries that my neighbor gave me. The butter pecan crumb of the cake and the cream cheese frosting are such a delicious blend. I have garnished it with pecans, fresh blueberries and a mint chiffonade. This cake will be a hit for any occasion and is delicious!
