Blackberry Cake With Cream Cheese Frosting

Blackberry Crumb Cake

This moist, blackberry-studded cake is topped with a layer of big buttery crumbs.

Blackberry Ice Cream

This eggless ice cream puts summer blackberries center stage, without any hint of custard to distract from their tart, jammy flavor. A tiny pinch of ground cinnamon highlights their natural aroma without any overt spiciness, while a squeeze of fresh lemon juice helps cut through the richness of cream.

Blackberry-Thyme Crumb Cake

Blackberry preserves get an unexpected exclamation point with fresh thyme and lemon zest in this crumbly, buttery cake that's a cinch to make.

Mixed Berry Trifle

The trifle, a British classic, is a decadent combination of wobbly fruit jelly, genoise sponge cake, crème légère, and whipped cream built in a sharing-size glass bowl.

Blackberry Pistachio Icebox Cake

I love icebox cakes in the summer, when the thought of turning on an oven is too much to bear. This cake veers a bit from tradition, adding blackberries, pistachios, and pomegranate molasses in between layers of tea biscuits and rose water-infused whipped cream. It's sweet and creamy like an icebox cake should be, but tart berries and nutty pistachios keep things interesting.

Blackberry Bars

These thick, buttery bars are topped with chunky blackberry jam and toasted almonds.

Blackberry and White Chocolate Layer Cake

This beautiful lemon layer cake is accented with blackberry preserves, white chocolate icing, and wafer cookies.

Blackberry-Lemon Mint Juleps

Put a chill on your julep cups for these refreshing Blackberry Mint Juleps! This twist on the classic cocktail is a perfect sip for al fresco entertaining.

Blackberry Sour Cream Bundt

While many bundt cakes are served with a glaze or frosting, to me, this one at its best served plain with a cup of coffee for a lingering taste of summer.

Old-Fashioned Blackberry Cobbler

It's hard to beat warm and jammy blackberries under a light and crispy biscuit crust, but with a few simple tricks you can make the most of your fruit (whether picked from a local farm or just your local supermarket,). A small portion of raspberries will round out the flavor of sour or underripe blackberries, but with perfect fruit there's no need for a blend.
