Blackberry Lemon Heaven Cookies

Print Recipe

These heavenly cookies combine the sweet-tart flavor of blackberries with a bright lemon glaze. They’re soft, buttery, and perfect for any occasion.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large egg yolks
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup blackberry jam
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the egg yolks and vanilla extract until well combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and salt. Gradually add to the butter mixture, mixing until just combined.
  5. Roll dough into 1-inch balls and place on prepared baking sheets. Use your thumb or the back of a spoon to make an indentation in the center of each cookie.
  6. Fill each indentation with about 1/2 teaspoon of blackberry jam.
  7. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. For the glaze, whisk together powdered sugar, lemon juice, and lemon zest until smooth. Drizzle over cooled cookies. Let glaze set before serving.

Notes

For best results, use seedless blackberry jam. Cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
