Method
Preheat & Prep
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
Cream Butter & Sugars
- In a large bowl, beat butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy (about 2 minutes).
Add Wet Ingredients
- Mix in egg and vanilla extract until smooth.
Combine Dry Ingredients
- In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and lemon zest.
- Gradually add to wet ingredients and mix until a soft dough forms.
Fold in Blueberries
- Gently fold in blueberries and white chocolate chips using a spatula. If using frozen berries, do not thaw — this helps prevent streaking.
Scoop & Bake
- Scoop about 2 tablespoons of dough per cookie and place on the prepared sheet, spacing 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 10–12 minutes, until edges are golden and centers are soft.
Cool & Serve
- Let cookies cool for 5 minutes on the sheet, then transfer to a rack. Enjoy warm or cooled!
