6 eggs
2 cups flour
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla
2 cups blueberries + 1 tbsp flour (toss together)
2. In a mixer beat butter, cream cheese and sugar until creamy and light. Add in eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add in vanilla.
3. In a mixing bowl, sift flour, baking powder and salt. Slow down the mixer and slowly add in the flour to the butter mixture. Mix well.
4. Lastly add in the blueberries and mix well. Pour batter into baking pan and bake for 1 hour or until golden brown. Cool for 10 min in the pan before remove the cake out of the pan.
5. Cool completely before serving.
Err...how did you get the shape as per the 2nd photo? It looks round rather than square.
ReplyDeleteHere the fresh blueberries is very expensive, what i can do is use the canned blueberries to subsitute it. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteOh I liked! Yeah, why I never thought of freezing the blueberry when it was super cheap in summer.
ReplyDeleteI froze a lot of blueberries this time around because I know I will want them in winter.
ReplyDeleteHow did it taste using fat free cream cheese? I'm always shy about using that
Mmmmm....the cake surely delicious.Summer will be here shortly and blueberries will be in abundance.Thank you for the recipe....especially low fat cream cheese.Can't afford another inch on the waist!Simon says hip!hip!hooray!
ReplyDeleteNice cake. I still can't find the fat free cream cheese over here in Ipoh :(
ReplyDeleteFor some reason, fall always makes me think of making pound cake. I was just thinking about it earlier today, so I think I'll have to give this recipe a try!
ReplyDeleteYum! I love things like all year round. Looks fab.
ReplyDeletegreat thinking to freeze the bb. I forgot to do that this year and now they are now much more expensive -_-
ReplyDeleteI saw this on Tastespotting. Looks delicious.
ReplyDeleteA cream cheese pound cake? Brilliant! I had 2 bad encounters with blueberries (they were very bland) and they ruined my cakes. So I have stayed away from them ever since. Am always envious of people who churn out beautiful blueberry cakes ;)
ReplyDeleteJust by reading the ingredients, I can actually 'taste' the 'yummy-ness' of the cake!
ReplyDeleteLittle Inbox, you mean the 3rd pictures. I used a different kind of baking pan for that shape.
ReplyDeleteSonia, can you find the frozen kind there? I think you might be able to get it from Cold Storage.
LCOM, I only start freezing them this season after paying over $5.00 for the frozen ones.
Dawn, the fat free cream cheese tasted as good :)
Shereen, ha ha don't worry sis. Simon will love you just as much even with an extra inch.
Elin, you can always use the full fat kind :)
Fiber, thanks for stopping by and hope you like this cake.
AbowlofMush, thank you.
Noobcook, remember to do it next season as it is always cheaper than buying the frozen ones.
Nurit, thanks for stopping by.
The little Teochew, try using the frozen kind. They are just as good.
Mamafami, ha ha..
These cheesy pound cake squares look fabulous!
ReplyDeleteThese look lovely and moist, why is it called a pound cake? :)
ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteJust wanted to say that this cake is really yummy! I baked it today using strawberries instead of blueberries and I have to say, it is the best cake I have baked yet (not that I have baked a lot since I am an amateur)...Thanks once again!! Can't wait to try your other recipes...
Maria, thanks for trying out this cake. Yes hope you try out some other recipes here.
ReplyDeleteHi there
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed your blog. Wonderful recipes and wonderful photos. I made a blueberry cake and all my berries sunk to the bottom. Why? is it because I didn't toss them in flour?
Thanks.
Veron
Thanks for the recipe, the cake is so yummy! But my blueberries always sunk at the bottom, what is it so?
ReplyDeleteThanks for the great recipe, I have baked few times but my blueberries always sunk to the bottom although I have tossed them with flour, what is the reason?
