These Blueberry Lemon Heaven Cookies are the ultimate treat for anyone who loves the fresh flavors of summer. The soft and chewy texture pairs perfectly with the burst of sweet blueberries and the bright, citrusy zing of lemon. Topped with a sweet glaze, they are as beautiful as they are delicious.
- Ingredients:
For the Cookies:- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon lemon zest
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1 1/2 cups fresh blueberries (or frozen, thawed)
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon milk
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add the egg, vanilla extract, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Beat until smooth and combined.
- Mix in the sour cream until fully incorporated.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
- Gently fold in the blueberries, being careful not to crush them.
- Drop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden and the center is set.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- For the glaze (optional), whisk together powdered sugar, lemon juice, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. Drizzle over the cooled cookies.
- Allow the glaze to set before serving.
