Freeze The Main Ingredient For Excellent Blueberry Cookies
BY KAT LIEU
When making blueberry cookies, one of the best things you can do is to freeze the fresh berries and then thaw them for an incredible texture and flavor transformation.
The blueberries will release their natural juices as they thaw, turning irresistibly soft, juicy, and syrupy, making them easy to mix into your cookie dough.
The process intensifies the berries' flavor and gives your cookies a beautiful blue-purple hue. The final batch will have great structure and a blueberry muffin-like taste.
All you have to do is wash and dry the blueberries, spread them out on a baking sheet, freeze them for at least 12 hours, thaw, and then enjoy using them in your cookies.
