Ingredients:

1 tbsp corn flour
16g
1/2 cup self-raising flour
72g
1 tsp baking powder
5g
1 cup butter
220g
1 cup sugar
200g
1 tsp vanilla extract
4g
3 eggs
150g
1 cup ricotta cheese
230g
2 tbsp milk (1% fat)
30g
1/2 cup white chocolate
120g

Instructions:

1. Preparation:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease and line a 9-inch (23 cm) round cake pan with parchment paper.
2. Dry Ingredients:
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the corn flour, self-raising flour, and baking powder until well combined. Set aside.
3. Wet Ingredients:
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter and sugar together using an electric mixer on medium speed until the mixture is pale and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Add the vanilla extract and mix to combine.
4. Eggs and Ricotta:
- Add the eggs, one at a time, to the butter-sugar mixture, beating well after each addition. Ensure each egg is fully incorporated before adding the next.
- Add the ricotta cheese and mix until just combined.

5. Combining Dry and Wet Ingredients:
- Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Stir in the milk to achieve a smooth batter.
6. Adding the Chocolate:
- Gently fold in the chopped white chocolate or white chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
7. Optional Blueberries:
- If using, gently fold in the blueberries. Be careful not to overmix to avoid crushing the berries.
8. Baking:
- Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs attached.
9. Cooling:
- Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
10. Serving:
- Once cooled, optionally dust with powdered sugar or decorate with additional blueberries and white chocolate shavings.
- Slice and serve. Enjoy your delicious blueberry and white chocolate cake!

Tips:

- Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature before you start. This helps in achieving a smoother batter and a more even bake.

- To prevent blueberries from sinking to the bottom of the cake, toss them in a little flour before folding them into the batter.

- Use high-quality white chocolate for the best flavor. Avoid using white chocolate chips, as they often contain stabilizers.

- Allow the cake to cool completely before slicing to ensure clean cuts and better texture.

- For an extra touch, you can drizzle melted white chocolate over the cooled cake, or dust with powdered sugar for a visually appealing finish.

Your Blueberry and White Chocolate Cake is now ready to serve! Whether you're enjoying it yourself or sharing with loved ones, this cake is sure to become a favorite. The combination of white chocolate and blueberries provides a balanced sweetness that is both indulgent and refreshing. Enjoy!
