Equipment

  • Baking sheet
  • Parchment paper
  • Mixing bowls
  • Spatula
  • Wire rack
  • Microwave-safe bowl
  • Spoon or spatula for flattening the dough

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp lemon zest from 1 lemon
  • 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries
  • 1/2 cup white chocolate chips for the glaze
  • 2 tbsp heavy cream for the glaze

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  • Add the egg, vanilla extract, lemon zest, and lemon juice to the butter mixture and mix until fully combined.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a dough forms.
  • Gently fold in the fresh blueberries.
  • Add the dough onto the prepared baking sheet and flatten it slightly. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
  • Allow the bars to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine the white chocolate chips and heavy cream. Microwave in 15-second intervals until fully melted and smooth.
  • Drizzle the white chocolate glaze over the cooled bars and garnish with fresh blueberries and lemon zest. Allow the glaze to set before serving.
