Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Cream the unsalted butter, white granulated sugar, light brown sugar, and fresh lemon zest using an electric mixer for about 3-4 minutes until light and fluffy.
  2. Add in one large egg, fresh lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Mix well on low speed for about 1-2 minutes.
  3. Sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually incorporate into the wet ingredients.
  4. Gently fold in the wild frozen blueberries into the cookie dough.
  5. Scoop the cookie dough onto a lined baking sheet, cover with plastic wrap, and chill in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours.
  6. Prepare the lemon sugar coating by combining granulated sugar and additional lemon zest in a small bowl.
  7. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Roll the chilled dough into balls and then roll in the lemon sugar coating. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for 16-17 minutes.
