Made this over the weekend and turned out just perfect.

This recipe is identical to #7118 except for the amount of blueberries. I didn't think one cup was enough. Next time I will make Recipe 7118 Blueberry Boy Bait, that calls for 2 cups of blueberries.

I liked this blueberry cake well enough, but the recipe could be more specific. I cut the butter into the sugar flour mixture till the butter was pea sized. I am not sure that the step #1 gave adequate directions for a novice on that. I beat the egg whites till they were thick, but soft peak or firm peak would've given me a better idea of my goal. I think I should have beat the whites a bit longer, they dissapeared kind of quickly when I folded them into the batter. I guessed at 1/4 tsp of salt, but think maybe I should have gone with a bit more. But the end result was tasty.

Love the name but this recipe seems to have several problems. There's no mention of how much salt to add; I tried 1/2tsp and that seemed too much. The baking temp is not listed so I used 350° and that seemed ok. I'm guessing that the directions incorrectly call for 1/4 of the crumble mixture to be made into cake batter and 3/4 of the crumble mixture to be used as topping. Perhaps 3/4 of the crumble is meant to be made into batter and 1/4 reserved for the topping? Updated to apologize for misreading the directions - I missed the word CUP in regards to the reserved amount of topping crumble.
