Lemon Glaze
- 1 cup confectioners sugar
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tbsp milk
Instructions
- Preheat the oven at 350˚F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl add softened butter, white sugar, and brown sugar. Beat until creamy. Add the vanilla extract and egg and beat until mixed.

Notes
Store- at room temperature in a loosely covered container for 1 to 2 days. If you want to store these for more than 2 days, I recommend storing them in the fridge.
Freeze- The lemon blueberry cookies can be frozen for 3 months. Thaw in the fridge overnight.
Freezing the cookie dough - You can roll the cookie dough into a log, cover it with plastic wrap and freeze it for 3 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge. Cut the chilled dough into slices and bake according to instructions.
