- Preheat your oven to 335°F (170°C) and prepare three 7-inch cake pans with cooking spray and parchment paper.
- In a stand mixer, cream together the unsalted butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add in the eggs, sour cream, and vegetable oil, mixing until fully combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the cake flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Whisk together the buttermilk, lemon juice, and lemon zest, then alternate adding this and the dry mixture to the batter until just smooth.
- Fold in the fresh blueberries gently with a spatula.
- Divide the batter into the prepared pans and bake for 35-40 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean.
- Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 15 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
- In a stand mixer, beat the room temperature butter and cream cheese together until creamy, then add powdered sugar and mix until incorporated. Blend in lemon juice and zest.
- Once the cake layers are cool, spread frosting between layers and on the exterior of the cake. Decorate as desired.
