Blueberry Kuchen

Gloria at Canela Kitchen posted this delicious looking dessert recently and

I knew I wanted to try it with all the blueberries that are plentiful right now.

And I'd never heard of a German Kuchen before, much less tasted one.

It looks like cheesecake but tastes more like a firm custard with a cookie crust.  Very easy to make and so pretty, too!

And did you notice the lovely plate?  Believe it or not, it was discarded to the

trash at an auction.  Of course, I had to bring it home with me! :)

Here it is, written in US equivalents ~

Blueberry Kuchen

1 can sweetened condensed milk

1 cup plain yogurt

5 T soft butter

1/2 c sugar

1 egg

1 1/2 c flour

1 t baking powder

3 T milk

8 oz. fresh blueberries

Whisk condensed milk and yogurt together and chill.

Meanwhile,  preheat oven to 350. 

Cream butter and sugar in mixer. Add egg.

Then add flour and baking powder, alternating with the milk.

Press this dough into a greased 9" spring form pan,

covering the bottom and up the sides.

Bake for 10 minutes.

Layer fresh blueberries over baked crust and pour the

condensed milk/yogurt filling over the blueberries.

Return to oven and bake 25 minutes or until firm and no

longer sticky to touch.  Mine took 45 minutes, so be prepared

to watch and adjust the time if needed.

Cool and then chill in refrigerator.

Yum.  Thank you, Gloria!
