  • TO MAKE THE CAKE:
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer combine butter, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
  • Mix on low speed to roughly incorporate then increase to medium and beat until fluffy and light, about 5 minutes. About halfway through, pause to scrape bowl and beater with a flexible spatula
  • With mixer still running add egg whites a little at a time, letting each addition fully incorporate before proceeding to the next.
  • Reduce speed to low and sprinkle in about 1/3 of cake flour followed by 1/3 of prepared blackberry purée. Repeat with remaining flour and fruit, working in thirds as before.
  • Scrape bowl and beater with flexible spatula and resume mixing on medium speed for about 3 seconds to ensure everything is well combined. The batter should look bright purple and register between 65 and 68°F on a digital thermometer. 18 and 20°C
  • If the batter looks streaky or tie-dyed gently fold with a flexible spatula until streaks disappear.
  • Scrape into prepared pan spread into an even layer, and bake until puffed and firm, about 30 minutes.
  • Cool directly in pan for 1 hour then run a butter knife around the edges to loosen.
  • Invert onto a wire rack peel off parchment, and place on a serving plate until fully cool, about 1 hour.
  • Top with a batch of Cream Cheese Frosting and a handful of fresh blackberries and cut with a chef’s knife to serve. Wrapped in plastic this cake will keep for up to 3 days at cool room temperature.

Method
 

  1. TO PREPARE:
  2. Using a blender, food processor, or immersion blender, purée blackberries until totally smooth.
  3. If seeds bother you, the purée can be strained using a fine-mesh sieve; if you do plan to strain, add a couple extra blackberries to make up for the loss.
  4. Measure out exactly 6 ounces fresh blackberry purée (about 3/4 cup; 170g) and bring to about 70°F (21°C) before using.
  5. Adjust oven rack to lower-middle position and preheat to 350°F (180°C).
  6. Lightly grease an 8- by 2-inch or 8- by 3-inch anodized aluminum cake pan and line with parchment.
  7. Enjoy!
