The Star Ingredient
  • 1 cup Blueberries - Fresh or frozen (do not thaw)

  2. Cream butter with both sugars until fluffy. Add eggs and vanilla, then mix in flour, baking powder, and salt just until combined.
  3. Gently fold in the blueberries. Don’t overmix to avoid bursting all the berries.

  4. Drop spoonfuls of dough onto baking sheets, add cheesecake filling on top, and use a knife to gently swirl without overmixing.
