Tide You Over Tuesday: Blueberry Cream Cheese Coffee Cake

Ok, so I set out today having absolutely no idea what I was going to make for Tide You Over Tuesday!  Then,  inspirations struck!  Remember back when…I made this strawberry coffee cake!  I said I bet I could put cream cheese in it.  Well, guess what I did….and it is the best coffee cake I have ever put in my mouth…SERIOUSLY!

It takes a little work…but it is more than worth it!  I am going to make this Christmas morning for breakfast because it is to die for!

Cream Cheese Filling

• · 8 oz pkg Cream Cheese softened
• · 1 egg
• · 1/3 cup sugar

Cream all the above ingredients together and set aside.

Crumble topping

• · 3 Tbsp. Cold Butter Cut into little cubes
• · ½ cup all-purpose flour (or gf flour mix)
• · 3 ½ tbsp. sugar

Directions

Combine all of the topping ingredients in a bowl and rub together with your fingertips until crumbly. Set Aside

Cake

• · 1/2 cup butter, softened (1 stick)
• · 1 cup sugar
• · 2 eggs
• · 2 cups all-purpose flour (you can use GF Bisquick)
• · 1 tsp. baking powder
• · 1 tsp. baking soda
• · ½ tsp. salt
• · 8 ounces sour cream
• · 1 tsp. vanilla

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 Degrees.

Grease and flour (or use Baking spray with flour) a square pan that is a least 8×8. You could use a 9×9.

Cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.

Add eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Add vanilla.

Sift together dry ingredients. Add the dry ingredients to the creamed butter in parts alternating with the sour cream in 2 parts. You will want to start and end with the flour. Beat just until combined.

You will spoon 2/3 of the batter into the prepared pan.

Spread the cooled blueberry and cream cheese batter. I dropped by spoonfuls.

Spoon the remaining batter onto the blueberries and spread evenly and Top with the streusel topping

Bake in the upper third of the oven.

Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.

Serve

Yes…this is amazing! You will want to try it! You have to try it! WOW!
