Before you start baking, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). To prepare a 9×5-inch loaf pan, you should grease it and dust it with flour or line it with parchment paper to make it easier to remove.
Make the cake batter:
In a large bowl, mix the softened butter with the granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
Add the eggs one by one and beat well after each addition. Add the vanilla to the extract.
In another bowl, mix the flour, yeast and salt.
Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the butter mixture, alternating with the sour cream, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix the whole mixture until everything is well mixed.
Carefully add the cranberries cut into small pieces.
Baking the cake:
Spoon the dough into the prepared loaf pan, dividing it evenly.
Bake in preheated oven for 60 to 70 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean.
Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Make the white chocolate icing:
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine white chocolate chunks with heavy cream. Microwave for 20 seconds at a time, stirring after each time, until chocolate is melted and mixture is smooth.
Add the white chocolate sauce over the cooled cake, letting it drip over the edges.
Sprinkle chopped dried cranberries over the frosting for a festive touch, if desired.
Serve and taste:
Allow the frosting to harden before cutting the cake.
Serve the white chocolate blueberry cake at room temperature.
Tips and alternative options.
Fresh or dried cranberries: If using dried cranberries, soak them in warm water or orange juice for 10 minutes to soften them before adding to the batter.
Citrus Twist: Add a teaspoon of orange zest to the batter for a citrus flavor that complements the cranberries.
To keep the cake fresh, store it in a closed container at room temperature for 3 days or in the refrigerator for longer storage.
