Ingredients
For the Cookies:
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Zest of 1 lemon
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup fresh blueberries
For the White Chocolate Glaze:
1/2 cup white chocolate chips
2 tablespoons heavy cream
For Garnish:
Fresh blueberries
Lemon zest
Directions
1. Prepare the Cookie Dough:
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
Add the egg, vanilla extract, lemon zest, and lemon juice, mixing until fully combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a dough forms.
Gently fold in the fresh blueberries, being careful not to crush them.
2. Bake the Cookies:
Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Flatten each cookie slightly with the back of a spoon or your fingers.
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers are set.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
3. Prepare the White Chocolate Glaze:
In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine the white chocolate chips and heavy cream.
Microwave in 15-second intervals, stirring in between, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
4. Assemble and Serve:
Drizzle the white chocolate glaze over the cooled cookies.
Garnish with fresh blueberries and a sprinkle of lemon zest for a vibrant finish.
Allow the glaze to set before serving.
Enjoy these Blueberry Lemon Cookie Bars as a delightful treat for afternoon tea, parties, or simply as a sweet snack!
