  2. In a mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, sugar, and one egg. Beat on medium speed until smooth and creamy.
  3. Whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in another bowl.
  4. Mix melted butter, granulated sugar, and eggs in a different bowl until smooth. Add vanilla and mix again.
  5. Fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined.
  6. Gently fold in blueberries, distributing them throughout the batter.
  7. Pour half of the batter into the prepared pan, spread the cream cheese filling on top, then cover with the remaining batter.
  8. Bake for 60–70 minutes, checking for doneness with a toothpick.
  9. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
