Instructions

Use a mixer and cream together the butter and cream cheese.

Put in the lemon extract and 2 tablespoons lemon zest. Mix.

Add in the egg and mix.

Mix in the cake mix.

Carefully fold in the blueberries so that you don’t crush them.

Place plastic wrap on the bowl and put it in the fridge to chill for several hours. The dough should firm up.

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Add parchment paper to a baking sheet.

Drop the dough balls onto the baking sheet leaving 3 inches of space between them.

Pop in the oven and bake for 20 minutes or until golden brown. They should be on the center rack in your oven.

Once done, take it out of the oven and let them cool on the pan for about 10 minutes then move to cooling rack.

Make the drizzle by combining powdered sugar, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Use a fork or whisk to mix. Add in more sugar or juice as needed. Drizzle over the top of the cookies.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Blueberry Preservation Technique 🫐
Toss fresh blueberries in a light coating of flour before folding into the cookie dough to prevent them from sinking and bleeding color throughout the cookies.
Zest Maximization Hack 🍋
Use a microplane grater to extract maximum lemon zest while avoiding the bitter white pith, which can make your cookies taste harsh.
Cream Cheese Softening Pro Tip 🧈
Allow cream cheese to sit at room temperature for 30 minutes before mixing to ensure smooth, lump-free incorporation into the cookie batter.
Cake Mix Transformation Secret 🥣
For more complex flavor, brown the butter before mixing with the cake mix to add a nutty, caramelized undertone to your cookies.
Moisture Control Technique 💧
If the dough seems too wet, chill it for 30 minutes before baking to help the cookies maintain their shape and prevent excessive spreading.
