Sherry’s Blueberry Cream Cheese Crumb Cake

1. Make the Crumb Topping
In a small bowl, mix flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Cut in cold butter with a pastry cutter or fork until coarse crumbs form. Set aside.

2. Prepare the Cream Cheese Layer
In a medium bowl, beat cream cheese, sugar, egg, and vanilla until smooth and creamy. Set aside.

3. Make the Cake Batter
In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

In a separate large bowl, cream butter and sugar until fluffy. Beat in eggs, sour cream, and vanilla.

Gradually add dry ingredients to the wet mixture. Fold in blueberries.

4. Assemble & Bake
Spread cake batter evenly into a greased 9×13” baking pan.

Dollop spoonfuls of the cream cheese mixture on top and gently swirl with a knife.

Sprinkle crumb topping evenly over the top.

Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 40–45 minutes, or until the top is golden and a toothpick comes out clean.

5. Cool & Serve

Let cool for 15–20 minutes before slicing. Serve slightly warm, optionally dusted with powdered sugar.
