Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
- 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper. Cream together the softened butter and cream cheese until light and fluffy. Gradually beat in the sugar until well combined.
- Step 2: Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Step 3: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix. Gently fold in the blueberries.
- Step 4: Drop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
- Step 5: Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Store these delightful cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze them for longer enjoyment.
- For a warm, gooey center, gently reheat individual cookies in the microwave for 10-15 seconds.
- Serve these cookies slightly warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a truly decadent treat.
- To prevent the blueberries from sinking to the bottom, toss them lightly with a tablespoon of flour before adding them to the dough.
