Ingredients Equipment Method

Ingredients
  

  • 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp baking powder
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ½ cup unsalted butter softened
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup light brown sugar packed
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp lemon zest
  • 1 ½ cups fresh blueberries
  • ½ cup white chocolate chips optional

Equipment

  • Mixing bowls
  • Electric mixer
  • Baking sheets
  • Parchment paper
  • Cooling rack

Method
 

  1. Preheat the Oven:
  2. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  3. Mix Dry Ingredients:
  4. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  5. Cream Butter and Sugar:
  6. In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2–3 minutes.
  7. Add Wet Ingredients:
  8. Beat in the egg, vanilla extract, and lemon zest until combined.
  9. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients:
  10. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  11. Fold in Blueberries:
  12. Gently fold in the fresh blueberries. If desired, add white chocolate chips for extra sweetness.
  13. Shape the Cookies:
  14. Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  15. Bake:
  16. Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may appear slightly soft, but they will firm up as the cookies cool.
  17. Cool:
  18. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
