Make the streusel: Combine the brown sugar, flour, and cinnamon in a medium bowl. Work the cold butter into the sugar mixture using a pastry cutter or fork until it looks like coarse crumbs. Break up any large pieces so the crumbs are fairly small and even. Set aside.

Make the cake: Mix the flour, baking powder and salt together with a spoon in a medium bowl. Set aside.
2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, ½ teaspoon salt
In a large bowl with an electric mixer, cream the sugar and butter until light and fluffy. Add the egg and vanilla and beat until combined. Add the flour mixture and mix on low speed. Slowly add the milk and continue mixing just until combined. Fold in the blackberries with a spoon or rubber spatula.

Spread the batter into the prepared baking dish and bake for 38-42 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let cool for about 15 minutes before cutting and serving.
