White Chocolate Blueberry Oatmeal Cookies
I love cookies. I think I love them more than the kids do. I don’t know if it is their portability, or the fact that they are portioned out just so . I have really sat here and that about it and can’t figure out if it is a comfort to me because my grandma used to make them all the time, or if it is because they are just so darn delicious. My love of cookies runs deep and is pretty much biased for HOMEMADE cookies. You can keep your store bought per-packaged cookies because they aren’t the same. (Although I do have a temporary weakness sometimes for Oreos, but who doesn’t?!) Fact of the matter is, if there isn’t a fresh batch of cookies in my house at least once a week, there must be something wrong.
Since I have such a passion for cookies, I am always looking for the next best thing. I mix in random ingredients until I find a winner. This cookie caught my attention because it calls for less sugar than I am accustomed to using, but adds in the sweetness of the white chocolate and blueberry. The cookie is perfect for that cup of afternoon coffee or tea. I also didn’t here any complaints from my daughter with her glass of milk this afternoon. I am sure we have found a new winner that will be seen in my cookie jar on a regular basis.

Mmmm, sounds yummy. But I don’t think I have ever seen dried blueberries. ( maybe just because I never looked??) any tips where to find them? Are they pricey? ( I’m cheap! But try to buy organic when possible) thanks!
They are on the cheep if you find them on sale with a coupon. they are with the dried fruit. ocean spray and I think even sun-maid makes them. Publix will put them on sale all the time. Hope this helps…
They are typically with either the dried fruit (near produce department), or by the raisins. Hope that helps! 🙂
