    Rather than trying to interface a usb dongle to your project it may be easier to use a dedicated bluetooth chip as these will give you serial data and do the majority of the hard work.
    I don't have any code but here is a datasheet for such a chip.

    You basically need the chip an antenna (they make surface mount versions) and the rest seems straight forward.

    Look around page 24 for interfacing info. I came across a Toshiba chip which only had 8pins which is a bit more managable but I couldn't find an english datasheet.

    If you are in a real hurry you can buy rs232 BT dongles
