Blubbery Buckle and a Summer Giveaway

First, a little explanation about the title.

My computer has a feature called "auto-correct"; where, if it thinks I am mis-spelling a word

it will automatically correct it.

So, as I was typing blueberry, I must have hit a wrong key and the computer thought

I was spelling "blubbery"!

So, from now on my Blueberry Buckle will forever be known as 

Blubbery Buckle!

And as promised....another recipe!

And this one is definitely a keeper.

Cake Ingredients:

2 cups flour

2 t. baking powder

1/2 t. salt

1/4 C. butter (softened)

3/4 C. sugar

1 large egg

1/2 C. milk

1 pint blueberries

Topping Ingredients:

1/4 C. butter

3/4 C. brown sugar

1/2 C. flour

1/2 t. cinnamon

1/4 C. coursely chopped walnuts

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Cream butter and sugar (cake ingredients) until fluffy.   Beat in the egg.

Add dry ingredients alternating with milk. Mix.  Fold in blueberries.

Spread in greased 8 or 10 inch springform pan.

(or can be baked in a 10 inch square pan and served from the pan)

Combine topping ingredients with a fork to make a crumbly mixture.

Sprinkle over cake batter.

Bake for an hour. 

Test for doneness with a toothpick.

 If toothpick inserted does not come out clean, bake for another 5 minutes.

This is a delicious coffee cake type dessert that is a favorite of our family.
