this is a recipe that is a combination of many recipes. It is very moist and rich. My husband says this is the best darn blueberry coffee cake he has eaten in a long time! as he grabs his 36 inch waist and tells me it's paid for (considering when I met him he had a 32 inch waist 8 years ago)...LOL your kitchen will smell heavenly when this is baking! Ingredients:
1 cup butter (no substitutions) |
2 cups sugar |
2 teaspoons vanilla extract |
4 eggs (at room temperature) |
3 cups all-purpose flour |
2 teaspoons baking powder |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1 teaspoon salt |
16 ounces sour cream |
1 pint fresh blueberries |
1 cup brown sugar (firmly packed) |
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour |
2 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon |
1 cup butter (cold, cut into small cubes) |
Directions:
1. to prepare struesel topping: In a medium sized bowl combine all ingredients use a pastry cutter to cut butter into dry ingredients until mixture is crumbly and about the size of tiny peas - set aside. if you have a food processor go for it!

8. gently fold in your blueberries, being careful not to break them.
9. spray a 9x13 pan with pam on the bottom only.
10. add 1/2 of the batter and spread to cover the bottom of the pan.
11. sprinkle 1/2 of the struesel topping on top of the batter.
12. pour remaining batter on top and spread to cover.
