Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 cups 192 grams all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon 3 grams baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon 3 grams salt
  • 1/2 cup 1 stick or 113 grams unsalted butter, softened
  • 4 ounces 113 grams cream cheese, softened
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup 200 grams granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons 8 ml pure vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups 150 grams fresh blueberries

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and cream cheese until light and fluffy. Beat in the sugar until well combined.
  4. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until just combined.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Gently fold in the blueberries.
  7. Cover the dough with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours.
  8. Roll the dough out on a lightly floured surface to 1/4-inch thickness. Cut out the cookies with a 2-inch round cutter.
  9. Place the cookies on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie.
  10. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
  11. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For a more intense blueberry flavor, use frozen blueberries instead of fresh blueberries.
  • If you don't have a rolling pin, you can use two sheets of wax paper to roll out the dough.
  • To make the cookies even more flavorful, sprinkle them with coarse sugar before baking.
  • The cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
