Blueberries N Cheese Coffee Cake Recipe

Prep: 20 min. Bake: 35 min.

Yield: 15 Servings

20 35 55

Ingredients

1/2 cup butter, softened
1-1/4 cups sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon grated lemon peel
2-1/4 cups all-purpose flour, divided
3 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup milk
1/4 cup water
2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries
1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, diced
TOPPING:
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon grated lemon peel
2 tablespoons cold butter

Directions

In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in lemon peel. Combine 2 cups flour, baking powder and salt; add to the creamed mixture alternately with milk and water. In a bowl, toss blueberries with remaining flour; fold into batter along with cream cheese. Pour into a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking pan.
For topping, combine the flour, sugar and lemon peel in a bowl; cut in butter until mixture is crumbly. Sprinkle over batter. Bake at 375° for 35-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool completely on a wire rack. Yield: 15 servings.

Editor's Note: If using frozen blueberries, use without thawing to avoid discoloring the batter.

This is a delicious cake, however, I would leave out the chunks of cream cheeese. It's kind of gross biting into a chunk of plain old cream cheese. Maybe if it was flavored with sugar and vanilla it would be better. But I will just leave it out next time.
