½ cup unsalted butter, softened — Supplies richness and flavor while giving the loaf its buttery texture.
2 large eggs, room temperature — Bind ingredients together and add lightness and lift.

½ teaspoon salt — Balances sweetness and intensifies overall flavor.
1 teaspoon vanilla extract — Adds warm, aromatic depth to the batter.
1½ cups fresh or frozen blueberries — The star ingredient, giving sweet bursts of juicy fruit in every bite.
For the Cream Cheese Layer
