My Blackberry Lemon Pound Cake is a great summer-time dessert.

Especially now that grocery stores and farmer’s markets are stocked with gloriously ripe blackberries now through September.

Whip it up for your next pool party, BBQ, or picnic. It is crammed full of fresh ripe blackberries and just a hint of lemon.

THE BEST PART!!!!!!

This cake only takes about 10 minutes to prep before you pop it into the oven.

This cake can stand alone or serve it with a side of Blue Bell Homemade Vanilla Bean Ice Cream and watch it disappear before your eyes.
