# List of Ingredients:

→ Dough

01 - 1 cup (150 g) frozen blueberries
02 - 113 g salted butter, softened
03 - 50 g granulated white sugar
04 - 55 g light brown sugar
05 - 190 g all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled
06 - 3.5 g (¾ teaspoon) baking powder
07 - 90 g vanilla almond bark, chopped

# How to Prepare:

01 - Preheat oven to 175°C. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 - Heat frozen blueberries in a medium skillet over medium-high heat for 4-5 minutes until thawed and softened. Remove from heat and allow to cool until warm or room temperature. For a smoother consistency, continue cooking and mash lightly with a spoon.
03 - In a large mixing bowl, beat softened butter, granulated white sugar, and light brown sugar with a hand or stand mixer until the mixture is light and creamy.
04 - Beat the cooled blueberries into the creamed butter mixture on high speed until fully combined and purplish in color.
05 - Mix in all-purpose flour and baking powder until just incorporated. Avoid overmixing to maintain tenderness.
06 - Gently fold chopped vanilla almond bark into the dough using a spatula.
07 - Scoop dough using a 4 cm (1½-inch) cookie scoop and arrange onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing evenly.
08 - Bake for 9–10 minutes or until cookie edges turn golden and the centers are set.
09 - Remove from oven and allow cookies to cool on the tray for at least 5 minutes before serving warm or at room temperature.

# Additional Information:

01 - For vibrant color and intense blueberry flavor, allow the berries to cool thoroughly before adding to the dough to avoid melting the butter.
