Blubaugh’s Blueberry Buckle Shortcake

Blubaugh’s Blueberry Buckle Shortcake is a family favorite that’s been handed down from generation-to-generation. It’s an easy-to-make recipe with German/Pennsylvania origins. My family cannot get enough of these squares, and we eat them for dessert or breakfast.
