Storage Information
These cookies are best eaten the day they are made but can be refrigerated in an airtight container for 3 to 4 days. Allow the cookies to cool completely before storing.
To freeze, let cool, transfer to a freezer-safe, airtight container, and freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw at room temperature.
Trish’s Tips and Tricks
- By using butter that is at room temperature it will cream completely with the sugar resulting in a better texture for your cookies.
- Do not over mix or over bake. That will create a tough cookie instead of a soft and chewy cookie.
- Make sure you gently fold in the blueberries. Some may burst, which is totally acceptable as it adds a lovely color to the batter.
- For flatter cookies, press down gently on the cookie dough balls before baking.
- Step up your cookie game and chop a white chocolate bar instead of using white chocolate chips.
- Add a few white chocolate chips to the tops of the cookies right as they come out of the oven for a pretty finish.
- Add a teaspoon of lemon zest for added brightness and flavor!
