Cookie Base
- 1/2 cup butter softened
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cup all purpose flour
- 1 tbsp corn starch
- 1/4 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup fresh blueberries washed and dried well
- 1 to 1.5 tbsp blueberry jam
Streusel Topping
- 3 tbsp butter
- 2 tbsp brown sugar
- 2 tbsp granulated sugar
- 1/3 cup flour
- pinch of salt
- pinch of cinnamon
Instructions
- Make the streusel topping: Using a fork or your fingers, combine all streusel ingredients in a small bowl until the mixture becomes crumbly. Set aside until ready to top the cookies.
- Prepare the oven and baking sheet: Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- Cream the butter and sugars: In a mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and creamy. Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until smooth.
- Incorporate dry ingredients: Gently mix in the all purpose flour, corn starch, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Fold in the fresh blueberries carefully to avoid bleeding into the dough.
- Add blueberry jam: Drop small dollops of blueberry jam onto the cookie dough and swirl gently with a chopstick, knife, or small spatula to create visible streaks without over mixing.
- Portion and top dough: Scoop out 8 equal cookie dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet. Top each with a generous amount of the homemade streusel.
- Bake the cookies: Bake in the preheated oven for 14 minutes. Once baked, allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 15 to 20 minutes to set as they will be soft.
Notes
- Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days or refrigerate for up to 7 days.
- Warm cookies in the microwave for a few seconds before serving to enhance their soft, honey bun-like flavor.
- Handle cookies gently when warm as they are quite soft and delicate.
