Ingredients
  

  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup brown sugar, lightly packed
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons lemon zest
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 1 1/3 cups fresh blueberries, rinsed and dried

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine the brown sugar, granulated sugar, and lemon zest. Mix on high speed for 2 minutes to release the oils from the zest and infuse the sugar with lemon flavor.
  • Add the softened butter to the sugar mixture. Continue mixing until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the lemon juice and vanilla extract.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined. Avoid overmixing to ensure a soft texture.
  • Gently fold in the fresh blueberries, being careful not to crush them.
  • Using a medium cookie scoop, drop balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them at least 2 inches apart.
  • Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers are set.
  • Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
