Ingredients

  • 2 sticks of butter
  • ⅔ brown sugar
  • ⅓ white sugar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 2 lemons zested
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ baking soda
  • ½ kosher salt
  • 2¼ cups all purpose flour
  • ¾ Blueberries
  • ¾ white chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Add the butter to a skillet set over medium heat. Cook until the butter begins to lightly brown, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and transfer to a mixing bowl. Let cool for 5 minutes or so.
  • To the brown butter, mix in the brown sugar, granulated sugar, eggs, vanilla, lemon juice, and lemon zest mixing until smooth.
  • Add the flour, baking soda, and salt. Mix on low speed until the dry ingredients are combined. Don't overmix. Using a wooden spoon, fold in the blueberries and white chocolate chips.
  • Portion batter using an ice cream scoop on prepared baking sheets. Gently flatten the tops with the heel of your hand.
  • Bake at 350°F for 15-18 minutes. Transfer cookies to a cooling rack and enjoy!

Notes

  • When making brown butter cook until butter looks foamy and smells nutty. Be careful because butter can go from nutty to burnt very quickly.
  • Let brown butter cool down for 5 minutes before adding the wet ingredients.
  • Fold in blueberries by hand to hold their shape while baking.
  • Fresh blueberries make the best Blueberry Lemon Cookies, although frozen blueberries will work in a pinch.
