There were fresh local blueberries in our fridge, so the timing was right! I had been thinking about baking a Blueberry Torte ever since the Blueberry Freezer Jam was ready to be placed in our freezer. That was about a week ago. Yesterday was the designated day to take out my springform pan and bake this delicious dessert.  I have learned it is very easy to cut slices to serve if I bake this dessert in the springform pan. The sides of the pan are removed while the torte continues to cool.  That pan comes in handy and is not only used when baking cheesecakes.

A few years ago I wrote a post that included the ingredients and the directions for this yummy dessert. Click here to view it.

Yes, frozen/ defrosted blueberries can be used in this recipe. In my area the local juicy yummy berries are ripe now, so it is a great time to bake this. Quite often I save out 2 slices and freeze them, so we may enjoy them at a later date.  It is a wonderful surprise to open the freezer door to look for a special treat. And find slices of Blueberry Torte! 

Before serving a slice of this yummy Blueberry Torte, place a small amount of vanilla ice cream on top!  It is so good! Bake one this summer!

Enjoy!
Yummy!
