Ingredients

Butter and Sugars

  • 2 sticks (1 cup) unsalted butter
  • ⅔ cup brown sugar
  • ⅓ cup granulated white sugar

Flavorings

  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • Zest of 2 lemons
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Eggs

  • 2 large eggs

Dry Ingredients

  • 2¼ cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt

Add-ins

  • ¾ cup fresh blueberries
  • ¾ cup white chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure even baking.
  2. Brown the Butter: Place the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Cook the butter, stirring occasionally, until it lightly browns and develops a nutty aroma, about 5 minutes. Remove the skillet from heat and transfer the browned butter to a mixing bowl. Allow it to cool for approximately 5 minutes to avoid cooking the eggs in the next step.
  3. Combine Wet Ingredients: To the cooled brown butter, add the brown sugar, granulated sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, fresh lemon juice, and lemon zest. Mix thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and well incorporated.
  4. Mix in Dry Ingredients: Add all-purpose flour, baking soda, and kosher salt to the wet mixture. Mix on low speed or gently stir with a wooden spoon until the dry ingredients are just combined; be careful not to overmix to maintain a tender cookie texture.
  5. Fold in Add-ins: Using a wooden spoon or spatula, gently fold in the fresh blueberries and white chocolate chips evenly throughout the dough.
  6. Portion the Dough: Use an ice cream scoop or tablespoon to drop rounded portions of the cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them evenly. Lightly flatten the tops with the heel of your hand to encourage even spreading.
  7. Bake the Cookies: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 15 to 18 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the cookies are set.
  8. Cool and Serve: Remove the cookies from the oven and transfer them to a cooling rack. Allow to cool completely before serving. Enjoy your fresh lemon blueberry cookies!

Notes

  • For best results, use fresh blueberries as frozen may alter the texture and bake time.
  • Ensure the browned butter is cooled before mixing with eggs to prevent curdling.
  • You can swap white chocolate chips for regular or dark chocolate chips if preferred.
  • Store baked cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or freeze for longer storage.
  • Handle the dough gently once the flour is added to keep the cookies tender and soft.
