Ingredients (makes ~20 cookies):
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
- ½ cup powdered sugar
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- ½ cup freeze-dried blueberries (crushed into powder or small bits)
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- ¼ tsp salt
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 325°F (160°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream the butter and powdered sugar together until light and fluffy (2–3 minutes).
- Add vanilla extract and mix until combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, salt, and crushed freeze-dried blueberries.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients into the butter mixture and mix until a soft dough forms.
- Roll the dough into a log (about 2″ thick) and wrap in plastic wrap. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
- Once chilled, slice into ½-inch rounds and place on the baking sheet.
- Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until the edges just start to turn golden.
- Let cool completely on a wire rack before serving.
Optional Variations:
- Dip half in white chocolate for a fancier treat.
- Drizzle with a lemon glaze (powdered sugar + lemon juice) for a tangy finish.
