WONDERFUL BLUEBERRY POUND CAKE!

Wonderful Blueberry Pound Cake! image

The name says it all, this cake is incredible! If you prefer a less sweeter cake use just 2 cups sugar. If you are using frozen blueberries then do not thaw them, the cake might need to be baked longer if using frozen berries. Please lemon-flavor yogurt only for this!
