This is called a cake but is not tall and looks more like a danish to me because it is cooked in a 15x10x1-inch pan. Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter, softened |
1/2 cup shortening |
1 1/2 cups sugar |
4 eggs |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1 teaspoon almond extract |
3 cups all-purpose flour |
1/2 teaspoon baking powder |
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour |
2 teaspoons cornstarch |
1 teaspoon quick-cooking tapioca |
4 cups fresh blueberries, divided (you may also use frozen blueberries) |
1 teaspoon grated lemon peel |
1 cup confectioners' sugar |
1 -2 tablespoon milk |
1 teaspoon lemon juice |
Directions:
1. In a mixing bowl, cream butter, shortening, and sugar. 2. Beat in eggs, one at a time. 3. Add extracts. 4. Combine flour and baking powder; add to creamed mixture and mix well. 5. Spread two-thirds of the batter in a greased 15x10x1-inch baking pan. 6. For filling, combine flour, cornstarch and tapioca in a large bowl. 7. Add 1/2 cup of blueberries; mash with a fork and stir well. 8. Add lemon peel and remaining berries; toss to coat. 9. Pour evenly over batter in pan. 10. Drop remaining batter by rounded tablespoonfuls over filling. 11. Bake at 350°F for 40 minutes or until golden brown. 12. Combine glaze ingredients; drizzle over warm cake. |
