RICH AND BUTTERY HUCKLEBERRY BUNDT CAKE

Steps:

• 1. Add flour, salt, cinnamon and baking powder into your flour sifter, sift into large bowl. (If you don't have one, add ingredients to a large bowl and whisk together, then "sift" with whisk for awhile lifting ingredients from bottom of bowl and sprinkling on top. Repeat, repeat....but you really need to get a flour sifter! LOL ;) ) (*This is for the young ones that think "flour sifters" are old fashioned and aren't needed...uhm, yeah, ya need one.)So anyways...In mixing bowl, cream sugar and butter. Add eggs, vanilla, lemon juice and milk to creamed mixture. Add dry ingredients to creamed mixture. Beat for 2 minutes. Gently fold in frozen huckleberries. Bake in greased (I use butter-flavored crisco), and floured bundt cake pan for 20 minutes at 400 degrees, then reduce heat to 350 and bake 40 more minutes. Cool in pan 10 minutes. (If it apears to be sticking anywhere, loosen with sharp knife.) Turn out onto plate. When cooled, sprinkle heavily with powdered sugar. Good for at LEAST 3 days. (Covered.)
