  • 0.75 cup unsalted butter softened to room temperature
  • 0.75 cup granulated sugar
  • 0.25 cup brown sugar packed light or dark

Cookie Preparation

  • Whisk the flour, baking powder, and salt together in a large bowl. Set aside.
  • Beat the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together on high speed until creamy, about 2 minutes.
  • Add the egg, vanilla extract, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Beat on medium-high speed until combined.
  • Slowly add the dry ingredients and milk. Beat until just incorporated. Fold in blueberries.
  • Cover dough tightly and chill in the refrigerator for 30-45 minutes or up to 2-3 days.
  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (177°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Scoop dough, about 1.5 tablespoons each, and place 3 inches apart on the baking sheets. Bake for 15-16 minutes.
  • Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Lemon Glaze Preparation

  • Whisk confectioners’ sugar, lemon juice, and half-and-half together until smooth. Spoon over cookies.
  • If thinned, the glaze will set within a couple hours.

Notes

Glazed cookies will stay fresh covered at room temperature for 2 days or in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
