- ¾ cup (1 ½ sticks / 170 g) unsalted butter, room temperature
- ¾ cup (150 g) granulated sugar
- ½ cup (100 g) light brown sugar, packed
- 2 tablespoons lemon zest, about 1 large lemon
- 1 large egg, room temperature
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 ¼ cups (281 g) all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon cream of tartar
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 cup (148 g) fresh blueberries
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper. Set aside.
To the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, add the butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and lemon zest. On medium speed, cream together for 2-3 minutes.
Add the egg and vanilla. Mix until well combined, stopping to scrape the sides of the bowl as needed.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cream of tartar, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, mixing on low speed until just combined.
Fold in the blueberries until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Using a 2-tablespoon cookie scoop, drop the dough onto the lined baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each.
Bake for 13-14 minutes, or until the cookie is set and the edges are slightly golden brown.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
