Lemons and blueberries are totally a match made in foodie heaven.
Those 2 distinct flavors play off each other so beautifully; it’s really no wonder why these delightful flavors are so tantalizing and teasing to our taste-buds.
These Soft Lemon & Blueberry Explosion Cookies are actually THE bomb!!
Not even kidding…
When you taste these, it’s like a lemon and blueberry explosion bomb went off in your mouth!
Between the juicy blueberries and the tangy lemon glaze in these so soft, thick bakery sugar cookies…OMG!
The balance of sweet and tart fruit flavors bursting…gahhhhhhh! I can’t even explain it, but these were so unbelievably yummy, AND they sure didn’t stay around long here at the homestead.
And when I said above, “when you taste these”… Sorry, it won’t be just one. It will be ‘these‘. (I’m just letting you know ahead of time.)
These are the perfect summer cookies to serve for any occasion, holiday, bbq, the list goes on, ya know?
I made these Super Soft Lemon Glazed Sugar Cookies a few weeks ago and I fell in love with them, so why not try them with blueberries for a twist? Why not indeed!!
