Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (165 degrees C). Line two baking sheets with silicone baking mats. (5 minutes)

02

Step
3 mins

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, 1/4 cup graham cracker crumbs, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and nutmeg until well combined. (3 minutes)

03

Step
10 mins

In a large bowl, using an electric mixer on medium-high speed, beat together the softened butter, cream cheese, white sugar, brown sugar, egg, and vanilla extract until lightened and fairly smooth, about 4 to 5 minutes. It's okay if there are still small chunks of cream cheese. Beat in the lemon zest and juice. Gradually add the flour mixture, mixing until just combined. Gently fold in the blueberries with a spatula. (10 minutes)

04

Step
20 mins

In a shallow bowl or pie plate, combine 1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs and 3 tablespoons white sugar. Drop approximately 2 tablespoon-sized pieces of cookie dough into the graham cracker mixture, coating thoroughly. Carefully roll the dough into a ball and roll again in the crumbs. Place the dough balls at least 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets. Repeat with the remaining dough. (20 minutes)

05

Step
22 mins

Bake in the preheated oven until the cookies begin to turn golden and no longer appear wet on top, about 15 to 17 minutes. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. (22 minutes)

06

Step
15 mins

To make the icing, whisk together the confectioners' sugar, 2 1/2 tablespoons lemon juice, 1/4 teaspoon lemon zest, and a pinch of salt until smooth. Whisk in the heavy cream. Once the cookies are cooled, glaze each with a scant tablespoon of icing. If desired, sprinkle with additional graham cracker crumbs and top with 3 blueberries. (15 minutes)

For an extra burst of flavor, consider using lemon-infused sugar instead of regular white sugar in the cookie dough.
Ensure your butter and cream cheese are properly softened for a smoother batter and more even baking.
Gently fold in the blueberries to avoid crushing them and staining the dough.
Chilling the dough for 30 minutes before rolling can help prevent the cookies from spreading too much during baking.
The baking time may vary depending on your oven, so keep a close eye on the cookies and adjust accordingly.
These cookies are best enjoyed within 2-3 days of baking, stored in an airtight container at room temperature.
