Soft, chewy cookies bursting with fresh blueberry flavor, perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup powdered sugar (for coating)
Instructions
- Make the blueberry puree: In a small saucepan over medium heat, cook the blueberries for 5–7 minutes until they burst and thicken. Blend or mash until smooth.
- Cream the butter and sugars: Beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2–3 minutes.
- Add the egg and vanilla: Incorporate the egg, vanilla extract, and cooled blueberry puree into the butter-sugar mixture.
- Mix the dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add to the wet ingredients.
- Chill the dough: Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
- Roll and coat in sugar: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Roll dough into balls and coat in powdered sugar.
- Bake: Place on a baking sheet and bake for 10–12 minutes until crinkly on top.
- Cool and enjoy: Let cool for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
Notes
For best texture, ensure the butter is softened but not melted. Consider adding lemon zest for extra flavor.
