Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ½ cups unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 3 cups granulated sugar
- 5 large eggs, at room temperature
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 3 cups sifted all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 ¼ cups whole milk, at room temperature
- 6 cups strawberries, chopped
- 2 ½ cups small blueberries
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 16 ounces mascarpone cheese, cold
- 2 ½ cups heavy whipping cream, cold
- 1 ¼ cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325°F and generously grease two 5×9” loaf pans. Allow the butter, eggs, and milk to reach room temperature.
- Cream together the unsalted butter and sugar for several minutes until light and fluffy.
- Add the eggs one at a time, ensuring each is well mixed before the next. Mix the vanilla extract with the last egg.
- Sift the flour first, then measure out 3 cups, adding the baking powder and salt. Combine half of the dry ingredients with half of the milk until just mixed, then add the remaining ingredients and beat until well combined.
- Divide the batter evenly between the two loaf pans and bake for 60-70 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean. Allow the loaves to cool for at least 30 minutes before removing from pans. Run a knife around the edges to loosen, then cool completely before slicing.
Notes
For best results, ensure all ingredients are at room temperature before starting.
