Ingredients
1/4 c
butter, softened
1/2 c
sugar
2 large
eggs, beaten
1 c
flour
1 tsp
baking powder
1/4 c
milk
1 1/2 c
fresh or frozen blueberries
FOR THE SAUCE:

1/4 c
butter, softened
1/2 c
sugar
1 large
egg yolk, well beaten
1/4 c
boiling water
1 tsp
vanilla to taste

Directions Step-By-Step
1
Cream butter and sugar; stir in eggs.
2
Sift flour and baking powder together. Add to creamed mixture alternately with milk, beating well.
3
Coat blueberries with small amount of additional flour (to assure even distribution of berries in cake); fold into batter.
4
Pour into lightly greased 8- or 9-inch square pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. Cut into squares. Top with sauce.
5
NOTE: If you don't have a double boiler, you can use two pans that fit together. Put about 1-2 inches of water in the bigger pot, get it to boil, and then proceed with this recipe.
6
To prepare sauce:
Cream butter and sugar in top of double boiler.
7
Blend in egg yolk and boiling water. Cook over hot water until mixture thickens, stirring frequently.
8
Stir in vanilla. Spoon hot sauce over servings of blueberry cake.
