I hope you enjoy this recipe that I made in partnership with Nancy’s Yogurt. You know we are big Nancy’s Yogurt fans. Two weeks I bought 4 – 64 ounce tubs of their Organic Whole Milk Plain Yogurt from Azure Standard, and would you believe it’s already gone? My family absolutely devours the yogurt.

  • 1 cup butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup sugar, I used organic raw sugar

  • 4 oz Nancy's Organic Cultured Cream Cheese, softened
  • 1/3 cup cocoa powder

Instructions

To make the cake

  1. Preheat oven to 325 and grease and flour a bundt pan.
  2. Mix the flour, baking soda, salt, and lemon zest together in a large bowl.
  3. With a stand mixer, cream butter and sugar until it's nice and fluffy. Add the eggs and lemon juice and mix well.
  4. Gently mix in yogurt.
  5. Mix the berries with flour so they won't bleed all over your cake and gently fold them into the batter.
  6. Pour into a prepared bundt pan and bake at 325 for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  7. Cool cake in the pan for at least 15 minutes. Then run a knife all along the edges and invert the bundt pan to release the cake.

To make the frosting

  1. Beat cream cheese until fluffy, then add cocoa powder and powdered sugar. Add in milk or whipping cream until you reach the desired consistency.
  2. Drizzle over the completely cooled cake. Enjoy!
  3. Keep this cake refrigerated.

  1. This cake looks so yummy. I am watching my sugar content, so I think I would leave off the icing. I love the raspberries in the cake. We get them from our CSA and have elsie in the freezer – I will need to make this!
