  1. k, so is the crumb topping within the recipe, like a portion of the batter left dry, or is it something else that i should just know about or have lying around? or is that where the mascarpone comes in? and, could i smash up raspberries instead of blueberry juice?

  2. oh - crumb topping - reference my muffin post. just to your liking combine softened (not melted) butter, sugar, and flour, fork it together till it is crumbly.

    i would imagine smashed up raspberries would work well, i would add sugar to them, as i had some sugar in the blueberry juice. i might add some water too. or you could compensate for the lack of liquid by adding a bit more milk.
