These Blueberry Jam-Filled Cookies are a delightful treat with a gooey surprise inside. The buttery cookie dough pairs perfectly with the sweet and tangy blueberry jam filling. A touch of flaky sea salt or powdered sugar on top adds a finishing touch to these irresistible cookies.

Ingredients

Scale

For the cookie dough:

  • 1 cup (225g) unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 cups (250g) all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup (50g) almond flour (optional for tenderness)
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 2 tbsp blueberry powder (for natural purple color, or use a few drops of purple food coloring)

For the filling:

  • ¾ cup blueberry jam or preserves (choose thick, not runny)
  • For topping:

    • A pinch of flaky sea salt or powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. Prepare the dough – In a mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar until fluffy. Add egg and vanilla, mixing well. In another bowl, whisk flour, almond flour, baking powder, salt, and blueberry powder. Gradually fold dry ingredients into wet mixture until a soft dough forms.
  2. Shape cookies – Scoop out dough balls (about 2 tbsp each). Flatten slightly, then place ½ tsp of blueberry jam in the center. Seal carefully with more dough, rolling into a ball again.
  3. Bake – Place cookies on a parchment-lined tray, leaving space between them. Bake at 175°C (350°F) for 10–12 minutes, until edges are set but centers remain soft. Let cool slightly — they’ll firm up while keeping a gooey inside.
  4. Serve – Sprinkle with flaky salt or powdered sugar for contrast. Enjoy warm for the best gooey filling experience!
