How to Make Blueberry Heaven Cookies

The first thing you need to do is preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F). Cover two baking sheets with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

Now, take a large bowl and cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. This usually takes about 3-4 minutes using an electric mixer. Then, add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add the vanilla extract and mix until fully combined.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon or lemon zest (if using). Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and mix until well combined. Be careful not to overmix, or the cookies will be tough. Gently fold in the blueberries with a flat spoon, ensuring they are evenly distributed without crushing them too much.

Using a cookie scoop or spoon, drop round balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving 2 inches between each ball.

Now, bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are slightly golden brown but the center remains soft. Avoid overbaking to maintain a chewy texture. Finally, let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
