Blueberry Muffin Cookies with Streusel
A thick, soft, and chewy cookie that tastes exactly like a bakery-style blueberry muffin.
Ingredients
- Cookie Base
- 1/2 cup butter softened
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 & 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tbsp corn starch
- 1/4 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup fresh blueberries washed and dried well
- 1 –1.5 tbsp blueberry jam
- Streusel Topping
- 3 tbsp butter
- 2 tbsp brown sugar
- 2 tbsp granulated sugar
- 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
- A pinch of salt
- A pinch of cinnamon
Instructions
- Make the Streusel Topping Using a fork or your fingers, combine all the ingredients together in a small bowl until the mixture is crumbly. Set aside until you're ready to top your cookies.
- Make the Cookie Dough Preheat the oven then line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside. Cream the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until light and creamy. Add in the egg, vanilla extract, and mix until smooth.
- Gently mix in the flour, corn starch, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Fold in the blueberries making sure not to overmix so that the blueberries don't bleed into the cookie dough.
- Drop small dollops of jam onto the cookie dough and swirl with a chopstick, a knife, or a small spatula. Don't over-swirl, as visible streaks of jam should remain in the cookie dough.
- Scoop out equally sized cookie dough balls, place them on the baking sheet, and top with the homemade streusel. Bake in the preheated oven until the edges are set, then let the cookies cool down on the baking sheet. These cookies will be pretty soft so handle them with care!
