Description

A delightful cookie bursting with fresh blueberries and zesty lemon flavor, perfect for snacks or gatherings.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 3/4 cup (170 g) unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 3/4 cup (150 g) granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup (100 g) light brown sugar, packed
  • 2 tablespoons lemon zest, about 1 large lemon
  • 1 large egg, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 1/4 cups (281 g) all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 cup (148 g) fresh blueberries

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Cream together the butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and lemon zest on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.
  4. Combine the flour, baking soda, cream of tartar, and kosher salt in a separate bowl, then gradually add this dry mixture to the butter mixture on low speed until just combined.
  5. Fold in the fresh blueberries gently using a spatula.
  6. Scoop the dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each scoop.
  7. Bake for 13-14 minutes, or until the cookies are set and edges are golden brown.
  8. Cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

For chewy cookies, consider pulling them out when they look slightly underbaked.
