Servings: persons

10.5 oz frozen blueberries
3 cups sugar
6 None medium eggs, separated
None Pinch salt
1 1/2 cups butter, softened
2 3/4 cups plain yogurt
3 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 None orange, finely grated zest
1 1/4 cups orange juice
2 tbsp powdered gelatin
2 cups heavy cream
None None Pistachios, chopped, to decorate

1
Put the blueberries in a bowl, sprinkle with 2/3 cup of sugar and leave to thaw at room temperature.
2
Preheat the oven to 350u00b0F. Grease and line a 12 x 15 inch sheet cake pan.
3
In a large, clean bowl, beat the egg whites and salt until soft peaks form. In a separate bowl, beat butter and 1 3/4 cups sugar until pale and fluffy. Beat in the egg yolks, one at a time, followed by 2/3 cup of yogurt. Sift the flour and baking powder into the bowl and stir in gently. Add a quarter of the egg whites and fold in with a metal spoon, then fold in the remainder. Pour into the pan and level the surface. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until just firm to the touch.
4
Meanwhile, combine orange zest, orange juice and remaining sugar in a saucepan. Heat gently until the sugar dissolves. Bring to a boil and boil for 6-8 minutes until syrupy. Spread the syrup over the cake when removed from the oven. Leave to cool.
5
Soak the gelatin according to package instructions. Bring 2/3 cup of the cream almost to a boil in a small saucepan. Add the gelatin and stir until dissolved. Crush the blueberries with a fork and stir in the remaining yogurt. Whip the remaining cream until firm peaks form. Stir the gelatin mixture into the blueberry mixture, then fold in the whipped cream. Spread over the cake and leave to set for several hours or overnight.
6
Cut into squares and serve sprinkled with pistachios.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
Coconut cream is a reliable plant-based alternative to dairy cream.
