Blueberry Cake Filling
  1. In a medium saucepan, combine 2 tablespoons of cold water with the cornstarch. Mix it into a slurry.

  2. Add the blueberries, sugar, lemon juice, vanilla, and salt to this.

  3. Place the saucepan over medium-low heat and stir regularly as the mixture begins to warm up.

  4. As the mixture boils, it will thicken, become jelly-like, and lose its cloudy appearance. Let it boil for around 2 minutes, stirring continuously, before taking it off the heat. The cornstarch must be cooked through properly, or the filling can lose its thickness.

  5. Tip into a bowl. As the mixture is cooling, cover it with plastic wrap, gently pressing it on the mixture. This stops a skin from forming.

  6. Once cooled to room temperature, store in the fridge in an airtight container until needed.
