Blueberry Cake Crumb Bars
This might just be the perfect snack cake. It has a soft lemon vanilla bottom with a layer of fresh blueberries and more of that cake bottom crumbled on top. I love blueberries in case you don’t already know that.
Blueberries are in season again right now and you should start seeing the prices drop on them. Frozen blueberries will work in this also, just don’t thaw them first.
