I really think that this recipe needs some work... It mentions in the ingredients to divide the butter and sugar, but never mentions how much to divide the flour. Does the 1/4 cup for the blueberries come from the 2 1/2 cups??? Also, how much is supposed to be saved for the topping. My end result looked nice, but did not have a great taste. It was not sweet, in fact more biscuit like, and the blueberries were very tart due to the lack of sugar. Sorry!
