Love, love blueberry season -Blueberry Muffin Streusel Cake + my favorite blueberry recipes!!

Blueberry Muffin Streusel Cake, in Too Hot in the Kitchen cookbook.  I don’t think I have ever had a recipe go so viral as this one, but I can understand why as it is simple to make and each bite is one of decadence for blueberry fans.  My daughter’s boss gave me the recipe and then I made it trim & terrific!  I make in a foil pan to take to the beach or to someone.  This luscious cake makes a great breakfast, snack or treat (or all three).  One of my other absolute favorite blueberry recipes is in that book too, White Chocolate Blueberry Bundt Cake (actually in my kitchen now).If you don’t have a Bundt pan, make sure you have a nonstick Bundt pan to make sure the cake comes out easily.   And, if you like desserts, this book might have my best desserts from blueberries to chocolate, Too Hot in the Kitchen: Secrets to Sizzle At Any Age
