Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Butter an 8-inch square pan.
• In a mixing bowl, toss the blueberries with 1/4-cup of the sugar and the lemon rind. Pour the blueberries into the buttered pan.
• In another bowl, beat the shortening and sugar together until fluffy.
• Beat in the egg and vanilla.
• In another bowl, stir the flour, baking powder and salt together.
• Stir the flour mixture into the shortening mixture, alternating with the milk. The batter should be smooth.
• Spoon the batter over the blueberries and place the cake into preheated oven. Bake for about 40 minutes.
• To serve: Let the cake cool slightly. Turn it out onto the serving plate. Serve with plain or with whipped cream or ice cream.

POUDING CHôMEUR

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Spray a 9-inch square baking dish with cooking spray.
• Put the maple syrup, cream and 1/8 teaspoon salt in a medium saucepan and set over medium-high heat, whisking to combine. Bring to a boil and cook until reduced slightly, about 1 minute, then pour into the prepared baking dish.
• Meanwhile, beat the sugar and butter in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium-high speed, scraping down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula as needed, until light and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the milk, vanilla and eggs, then beat again on medium-high speed until smooth. Whisk together the flour, baking powder and 1/8 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl to combine. Add the flour mixture to the butter mixture, then beat on medium speed until just combined and no lumps remain.
• Dollop the cake batter on top of the maple sauce in an even layer. It's okay if some of the sauce is still visible once all the batter has been added.
• Bake until the sauce is slowly bubbling at the edges, the top of the cake is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 24 to 27 minutes. Cool 5 minutes, then cut into squares and serve warm, sauce-side up, topped with a dollop of whipped cream and some fresh berries if using.
