My First Try at Blueberry Cookies

I love blueberries. They have always been my favorite berry, and favorite fruit for that matter. Last week when they went on sale, I bought a few containers of them and enjoyed eating them by the handfuls. I could die eating blueberries . . .

Then, a couple of days ago while eating some, the thought crossed my mind: why are there no blueberry cookies? And then I suddenly wanted some. I googled blueberry cookies, but the recipes that turned up just didn’t strike my fancy, so I began to put together a recipe on my own.

I don’t know a whole lot about baking when it comes to making up recipes. Cooking is one thing, but baking . . . there’s a science to that. But after a little reading, I came up with a recipe.

I wrote down my recipe, but I probably won’t post it now because I’d like to do some tweaking on it. Of course this will be a long process because I don’t exactly have time and money to make batch after batch. Not to mention my waist would not appreciate it. But here are some of the ingredients I put in the first batch:

Butter, sugar, cream cheese (a definite keeper), and white chocolate chips. And blueberries, of course!

I think for my next try, I will omit the white chocolate chips, double the blueberries, and add some lemon.

But mmmmmm, they sure were yummy though! And it really was a fun experiment.

What can I say? I’m a fan of everything blueberry!
