Lemon Glazed Blueberry Bites

Blueberries with lemon is one of my favorite flavor pairings for a dessert. My latest creation with the duo are these lemon glazed blueberry bites, plump cookies bursting with fresh blueberries.

Incorporating a blend of cream cheese and butter to the dough ensures that each bite is tender and chewy. Lemon zest perfumes the cookies while a drizzle of fresh lemon glaze adds an extra hit of citrus. Serve slightly chilled for an irresistible taste of summer.
