BLUEBERRY CREAM CHEESE COFFEE CAKE
This will impress your guests when you want something extra special to serve for brunch on a summer morning during blueberry season. I sometimes make an extra cake just for backup and keep it well wrapped in a round metal tin in the freezer.

Steps:
- Position the oven racks so that they are evenly spaced and one rack is in the center. Preheat the oven to convection bake at 325°F. Lightly grease the bottom and sides of a 10-inch springform pan and dust with flour.
- Stir the flour and 3/4 cup of the sugar together in a large bowl. With a pastry blender or a fork, cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Reserve 1 cup of the mixture.
- Add the baking powder, salt, sour cream, 1 egg, and the almond extract to the remaining flour mixture. Mix until a stiff dough forms. Press the dough over the bottom and 2 inches up the sides of the pan; it will be about 1/4 inch thick on the sides.
- With an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese, the remaining 1/4 cup sugar, and the remaining egg in a small bowl until well blended. Pour the mixture over the dough in the pan and spread evenly. Arrange the blueberries over the top. Mix the almonds with the reserved crumb mixture and sprinkle over the blueberries.
- Bake in the center of the oven for 35 to 45 minutes or until the filling is set and the crust is golden brown. Cool for 15 minutes, remove the sides of the pan, and finish cooling on a wire rack and transfer to a serving plate.
