PREHEAT THE OVEN TO 350F.

In a large mixer bowl, beat the butter and sugar until soft and light.

Add the eggs one at a time, beating well between each addition.

Beat in the vanilla. Sift together the flour and baking powder and stir into the batter in three additions, alternating with the yolks and milk, beginning and ending with the flour.

Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan.

Scatter the blueberries evenly over the batter, pressing them in gently.

FOR THE CRUMBS:

Mix the flour, sugars, cinnamon and nutmeg in a bowl.

Melt the butter and stir it in evenly.

Rub the mixture to coarse crumbs by hand.

Cool the cake in the pan on a rack.

Cut the cooled cake into 24 3-inch squares.

Remove the squares from the pan to a platter.

VARIATIONS: Substitute 4 cups pitted sour cherries for the blueberries.
