Tips and tricks

• Use Fresh Blueberries: Whenever possible, opt for fresh, ripe blueberries for the best flavor and texture in your cookies.
• Pat Dry: If your blueberries are moist, gently pat them dry with paper towels before incorporating them into the dough. This helps prevent excess moisture in the cookies.
• Toss in Flour: Lightly coat the blueberries in a small amount of flour before folding them into the cookie dough. This can help prevent them from sinking to the bottom during baking.
• Chill the Dough: After mixing the cookie dough, consider chilling it in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes. Chilled dough is easier to handle and results in cookies that spread less during baking.
• Uniform Sizes: Use a cookie scoop or spoon to portion out the dough for even-sized cookies. This ensures consistent baking.
• Don’t Overmix: Once you add the blueberries, mix the dough gently until they are evenly distributed. Overmixing can break the berries and lead to uneven distribution.
• Baking Temperature: Preheat your oven to the specified temperature. Baking at the correct temperature ensures even cooking and proper texture.
• Parchment Paper or Silpat: Line your baking sheets with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to prevent sticking and ensure even browning.
• Spacing: Leave enough space between cookie dough portions to allow for spreading. About 2 inches apart is usually a good guideline.
• Monitor Baking Time: Keep a close eye on the cookies as they bake, as blueberries can release moisture during baking. Bake until the edges are golden, and the centers are set.
• Cooling: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack. This helps prevent them from breaking apart when they’re still soft.
• Storing: Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature. If you want to maintain their freshness, you can add a slice of bread to the container to help prevent them from becoming too dry.
• Freezing: If you’re making a larger batch, you can freeze cookie dough portions to bake later. Portion the dough and freeze them on a baking sheet. Once frozen, transfer them to a freezer-safe bag. Bake from frozen, adding a few extra minutes to the baking time.
• Variations: Experiment by adding a touch of lemon zest, a sprinkle of cinnamon, or even a drizzle of glaze on top of the cookies for added flavor and visual appeal.
