Cornmeal Cake with Blackberry Glaze

I saw Nigella, kitchen goddess, make this elegant and unfussy polenta cake on her show. The blackberry glaze idea came from the photo of these donuts – gorgeous! Note: although purple and lovely, my cake was a little dry since my blackberry glaze just sits on top, so next time...
