Blueberry Dessert Cake

1/4 cup shortening
1 cup white sugar
1 egg
1 tsp. lemon juice (fresh or bottled)
2 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. salt
1 3/4 cups flour
1/2 cup milk
2 cups blueberries

Cream shortening and sugar. Add egg and blend well. Add remaining
ingredients except berries and blend well. Carefully fold berries
into the batter. Place batter into a greased tube pan. prepare
topping.

Topping:

1/3 brown sugar
1/2 tsp. cinnamon

Combine sugar and cinnamon and sprinkle on top of uncooked cake.
Bake in preheated oven at 350 degrees for 40 minutes or until cake
tests done.

NOTE: A 9x9 pan can be used but I find that with the moisture in
berries, a tube pan bakes more evenly. My family prefers more berries
so I usually put and extra 1/2 cup. If using frozen berries I would
not add extra as they contain more moisture.
