Preparation

Step 1

Directions:
For cake – Heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour a 9 x 11 inch pan. Cream butter and sugar until light and
fluffy, beat in the egg and set aside.
Sift the flour with the baking soda.
Stir the dry ingredients, alternating with the buttermilk, into the
creamed mixture. Spread the mixture in
the prepared dish and cover with the berries.
Prepare streusel.
For Streusel – Combine flour, sugar, brown sugar,
pecans, butter, nutmeg and ginger and mix together with two forks for fingers
until crumbly. Sprinkle the crumbles
over the berries. Bake for 1 hour or
until brown.
For Cinnamon Bourbon Sauce – Melt the butter over simmering
heat in a double boiler. Beat together
the sugar, eggs and cinnamon in a bowl, then add to the butter. Add the water, stirring until the mixture
coats the back of a spoon about 7 minutes.
Remove from heat and cool to room temperature. Beat in the cream and bourbon. Serve squares of Blueberry Buckle topped with
the warm sauce.
