🗝️ Key takeaways: why this recipe is your new favorite

  • I love the combination of white chocolate chips and dried blueberries. It creates a rich flavor that is both sweet and slightly tart.

🧾 Gather your ingredients: what you'll need

This is an overview of the ingredients. You'll find the full measurements and instructions in the green recipe card (printable) at the bottom of the page.

Labeled ingredients for blueberry white chocolate cookies.

📖 Make it your own: yummy variations

  1. Orange blueberry cookies: Add orange zest instead of lemon zest for a tangy twist.
  2. Nutty addition: Mix in some chopped nuts like walnuts or pecans for added crunch.
  3. Dark chocolate: Substitute dark chocolate chips for a richer flavor.
  4. Drizzle: Go for even more white chocolate and add a drizzle of melted white chocolate over each cookie.

🤫 Marye's secret for zhuzhing it up -

Instead of plain granulated sugar use vanilla sugar. It provides an extra blast of vanilla - so good!

zhuzh: verb. To make something more interesting or attractive

🍴Must have tools: essential equipment

  • measuring cups and spoons
  • large mixing bowl
  • electric stand mixer or hand mixer
  • rubber spatula
  • medium cookie scoop
  • cookie sheets
  • parchment paper
  • cooling rack

🥫 Leftover love: how to store blueberry white chocolate cookies

Put parchment between layers. Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. For best results, enjoy them within the first few days while they’re still soft and chewy.

You can freeze baked cookies for up to 6 months or the dough for 3 months. Just pack them up in the same way as above.

Marye's Tip o' the day

For a fresh-from-the-oven taste, warm leftover cookies in the microwave for a few seconds before eating.

💭 Insider tips: things to know

  1. Room temperature ingredients: Make sure your butter, Crisco, and eggs are at room temperature for easier mixing and better texture.
  2. Avoid overmixing: Mix the dough just until the dry ingredients are incorporated to keep the cookies tender.
  3. Chill the dough: If the dough feels too soft, chill it in the refrigerator for 30 minutes before baking to help the cookies keep their shape.

👩‍🍳 Let's answer those questions: FAQs

Have other questions? Ask me in the comments!

Can I use fresh blueberries instead of dried?

Fresh blueberries can add too much moisture to the dough in this recipe. Stick with dried blueberries for the best texture.

Can I freeze the dough?

Yes! You can freeze the cookie dough balls on a baking sheet, then transfer them to an airtight container. Bake from frozen, adding a few extra minutes to the baking time.

Can I use all butter?

If you use all butter the cookies will be greasy and flat. If you use all shortening they will be tasteless. Follow the recipe and they will be perfect.

✍🏻 A note from Marye...

I know y'all don't always like the stories bloggers tell so when I have one I try to put it at the very bottom so you can read or skip as you like.

May 26, 2009

I wanted to share one of the cookie recipes from my cookbook in case you wanted to pre-test it. This is one of my favorites, and very unusual - blueberry white chocolate chip cookies. I developed these because I loved the blueberry white chocolate muffins that I made so much. I kept thinking that it would make such an awesome flavor combination in the right cookie-and I was right!

The trick to these, if there is one, is to take them from the oven slightly under-done so that they finish cooking as they cool. The dried blueberries keep them moist for longer than usual if they last past the first day.

Please, if you do try these? Leave a comment and let me know what you think. I am horridly nervous about the cookbook.
