Kevin bought *more* blueberries!

Kevin stopped at the local farm again on his way home from work and bought - wait for it - blueberries!

But not like 10 pounds again. More like a pint. Or a quart. I really don't know.

But I do know that the 2 cups of fresh blueberries I used in the following recipe hardly made a dent.

Blueberry Kuchen
(and that's pronounced Coo-hen, just in case you were wondering - it's German)

Cake Ingredients:

1/2 cup butter, softened
1/3 cup sugar
1 egg
1/2 tsp. pure vanilla extract
1 tsp. baking powder
1 1/4 cups flour
2 cups fresh blueberries

Streusel Topping:

1 TB butter, melted
2 TB sugar
2 TB flour
1 pinch cinnamon
1 dash pure vanilla extract

Directions:

Grease and flour an 8 inch springform pan. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Cream together butter, sugar, egg and vanilla. Add the baking powder, salt and flour. Stir until smooth. If necessary, add a drop or two of milk to make the batter smooth. Flour your hands and pat the dough into the prepared pan. Press the dough 1/2 inch up the sides of the pan. Place the blueberries on top of the dough. Combine the streusel ingredients and sprinkle on top. Bake at 375 degrees for 25-27 minutes. Let cool to room temperature before serving.

This is why I love a springform pan

This dessert is like a giant sugar cookie topped with blueberry cobbler.

Way yummy.

I had to hose off the walker and stick the baby in the bath right after this. I *may* have to burn his outfit. Next time he eats this - he is going to be naked and in the high chair. The way he should be every time he eats, actually.
