Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 2 3/4 cups flour
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla
  • 1 egg
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 3 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1 tsp powdered sugar (optional)

Directions:

  1. In large bowl, combine butter and 1/2 cup sugar; blend well. Lightly spoon flour into measuring cup; level off. Add flour, salt, vanilla and egg; blend well. Cover; refrigerate until firm, about 2 hours ( sometimes make the day before).
  2. In medium saucepan, combine blueberries, 1 cup sugar and cornstarch. Cook over medium heat until mixture comes to a boil, stirring constantly. Boil 3 minutes or until thickened, stirring constantly. Remove from heat to cool.
  3. Heat oven to 375 degrees F. Pat 2/3 of chill dough into a 13X9-inch pan, pressing 1/2 inch up sides. Spread blueberry mixture evenly over dough. Roll out remaining dough to 1/4-inch thickness. Cut into 1/2-inch wide strips. Arrange strips in lattice design over filling. (Strips may break apart but will break together.) Trim and seal edges. I use fork tines to seal.
  4. Bake at 375 degrees F for 30 to 40 minutes or until top is golden brown. Cool. Sprinkle with powdered sugar, optional and cut into squares.
