Add the blueberries to the dry mixture. Gently fold them in to coat them with the flour mixture, which helps prevent them from sinking to the bottom.

In a separate measuring cup or bowl, combine the buttermilk and vanilla extract.

Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients in the large mixing bowl. Pour the buttermilk and vanilla mixture into the well. Mix the wet and dry ingredients together with a spoon or spatula until just combined and a thick, shaggy dough forms. Be careful not to overmix.

Pour the 1 cup of melted butter into a 9x13 inch baking pan, ensuring the bottom is evenly coated.

Scoop the biscuit dough mixture directly on top of the melted butter in the baking pan. Use a spatula to gently spread the dough evenly across the pan. Do not press down too firmly.

Using a spatula or knife, cut 'slits' or score the dough into individual biscuit portions. This helps with serving later but doesn't fully separate them before baking.

Place the baking pan into the preheated oven and bake for approximately 25 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown on top and cooked through.

While the biscuits are baking, prepare the glaze. In a small bowl or measuring cup, combine the powdered sugar and whole milk. Whisk until smooth and slightly thick. If too thick, add a tiny bit more milk; if too thin, add a bit more powdered sugar.

Once the biscuits are baked, remove them from the oven. Immediately drizzle the prepared glaze generously over the hot biscuits. Serve warm, being cautious as the blueberries will be extremely hot.
