"This is the recipe that won second place in the junior division for Chicago teenager Renny Powell in Pillsbury's fifth Grand National recipe contest (later to become the Pillsbury Bake-off). This is the original recipe, not one of the more elaborate "improved" versions that aren't really similar. Adapted from Pillsbury's 5th Grand National 100 Prize-Winning Recipes. I don't recommend using any other kind of fruit; the results will not be as good. Fresh blueberries are best, but frozen can be used. If using frozen berries, drain them well. Don't worry if they sink to the bottom; they're supposed to."
