Instructions

1️⃣ Prepare the Oven

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.


2️⃣ Mix Dry Ingredients

In a medium bowl, whisk together:

  • flour

  • baking soda

  • baking powder

  • salt

Set aside.


3️⃣ Cream Butter & Cream Cheese

In a large bowl, beat butter, cream cheese, granulated sugar, and brown sugar for 3–4 minutes until light and fluffy.


4️⃣ Add Wet Ingredients

Mix in egg and vanilla extract until fully combined and smooth.


5️⃣ Combine Dough

Gradually add dry ingredients to the wet mixture.
Mix only until combined — avoid overmixing for soft cookies.


6️⃣ Fold in Blueberries

Gently fold in blueberries and optional add-ins like white chocolate chips or lemon zest.


7️⃣ Scoop Cookies

Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing cookies about 2 inches apart.


8️⃣ Bake

Bake for 12–15 minutes, until:

  • edges are lightly golden

  • centers look soft but set

Do not overbake.


9️⃣ Cool

Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Use frozen blueberries directly from the freezer to prevent color bleeding.

  • Slightly underbake for ultra-soft centers.

  • Chill dough for 30 minutes if cookies spread too much.

  • Use parchment paper for even baking.

  • Handle dough gently to keep blueberries intact.
