Ingredients
  

For the Dough
  • 1 cup Butter adds richness and structure; margarine can be used for a dairy-free version
  • 1 cup Sugar provides sweetness and texture; switch to brown sugar for a deeper flavor
  • 8 oz Cream Cheese lends creaminess; opt for vegan cream cheese if dairy-free
  • 2 cups All-Purpose Flour the backbone of these cookies; swap with a gluten-free blend if needed
  • 2 large Eggs bind the ingredients; ground flaxseed can work as a vegan replacer
  • 1 tsp Baking Powder ensures cookies rise; check for freshness
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract infuses lovely flavor; almond extract can add a twist
  • 1/4 tsp Salt enhances sweetness and balances flavors
For the Blueberry Swirl
  • 1 cup Blueberries fresh is preferred; thawed frozen works in a pinch

Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • whisk
  • Baking Sheet
  • Parchment paper

Method
 

Making the Cookies
  1. Cream together butter and sugar in a large bowl until light and fluffy, typically around 3-5 minutes.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
  3. Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined.
  4. Carefully fold in the fresh blueberries, keeping them whole.
  5. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the dough for 30 minutes.
  6. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and drop spoonfuls of the dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment.
  7. Bake for 12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
  8. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
