Ingredients
Scale
- ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- ¼ cup brown sugar, packed
- 1 large egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1½ cups all-purpose flour
- ½ tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ¼ tsp salt
- ½ cup sour cream or plain Greek yogurt
- 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries (if frozen, don’t thaw)
- For the Streusel Topping: ¼ cup brown sugar
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- ¼ cup cold butter, cubed
- Pinch of cinnamon (optional)
- For the Glaze (optional but heavenly): ½ cup powdered sugar
- 1–2 tbsp milk or cream
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a small bowl, mix sugars, flour, and cinnamon for the streusel. Cut in cold butter using a fork or your fingers until crumbly. Chill until ready to use.
- Cream butter and sugars together until light and fluffy (2–3 minutes).
- Add egg and vanilla; beat until combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Add dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with sour cream, mixing just until combined.
- Gently fold in blueberries (be careful not to overmix).
- Use a medium cookie scoop (about 2 tbsp dough) and place on the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle each cookie generously with the streusel topping.
- Bake for 13–15 minutes, or until the edges are golden and the centers are set. Cool completely on a wire rack.
- Whisk powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla until smooth. Drizzle over cooled cookies.
Notes
- Add a little lemon zest to the dough for a bright flavor boost.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days (or refrigerate up to 1 week).
- They freeze beautifully — just skip the glaze until after thawing.
