Instructions

1. Whip Up the Dough:

– Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prep a baking sheet with parchment paper.
– In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until they’re a fluffy dream team.
– Mix in egg, vanilla, lemon zest, and lemon juice until combined.

– Gently fold in those lovely blueberries – careful, no squishing!

2. Get Baking:

– Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto your prepped baking sheet, spacing them 2 inches apart.
– Flatten gently with a spoon or fingers.
– Bake for 12-15 mins until edges turn a delicious golden brown.
– Let cool on the sheet for 5 mins before moving them to a wire rack to cool completely.

3. Craft the Chocolatey Glaze:

– Combine white chocolate chips and heavy cream in a microwave-safe bowl.
– Microwave in 15-second bursts, stirring in between, until smooth and creamy.

4. Assemble & Serve:

– Drizzle the silky white chocolate glaze over your cooled cookies.
– Garnish with fresh blueberries and sprinkles of lemon zest for a vibrant finish.
– Let the glaze set, share, and enjoy!
