Method

Cake Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

  2. 2

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cocoa powder until well combined.

  3. 3

    Combine Wet Ingredients

    In another bowl, mix the milk, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.

  4. 4

    Combine Both Mixtures

    Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

  5. 5

    Bake the Cake

    Pour the batter into a greased 9x13 inch baking pan and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Blueberry Compote Preparation

  1. 6

    Cook Blueberries

    In a medium saucepan, combine the blueberries, sugar, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat until the blueberries start to release their juices, about 5 minutes.

  2. 7

    Thicken the Compote

    In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and water until smooth. Add this mixture to the saucepan and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the compote thickens.

  3. 8

    Cool the Compote

    Remove the compote from heat and let it cool slightly.

Assembly and Serving

  1. 9

    Dust with Powdered Sugar

    Once the cake has cooled, dust the top with powdered sugar.

  2. 10

    Serve with Compote

    Serve slices of the cake topped with blueberry compote and garnish with fresh mint leaves.
