Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a 9x13 inch baking dish by greasing it or lining with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine all-purpose flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Cut in the softened unsalted butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  3. In a separate bowl, blend cream cheese, granulated sugar, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
  4. Pour half of the batter into the prepared baking pan. Spoon the cream cheese mixture over the batter, then add blueberries evenly. Top with the crumb mixture.
  5. Bake for 40-45 minutes, checking for doneness with a toothpick.
  6. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for at least 15 minutes before serving.
