Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup unsalted butter softened
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries
  • For the Cream Cheese Layer:
  • 8 ounces cream cheese softened
  • ½ cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • For the Crumb Topping:
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • ½ cup unsalted butter melted
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven: Set the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8-inch square baking dish.
  • Prepare the cream cheese layer: In a bowl, mix the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth. Set aside.
  • Make the cake batter: In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  • Combine the dry ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Gently fold in the blueberries.
  • Assemble your cake: Pour half of the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly. Next, spoon the cream cheese mixture on top and then layer the remaining cake batter over it.
  • Prepare the crumb topping: In a separate bowl, combine flour, brown sugar, melted butter, and cinnamon until crumbly. Spread the crumb mixture over the top of the cake batter.
  • Bake: Place in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes or until the cake is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  • Cool and serve: Allow to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
