Blueberry Rye Cookie Recipe

The flour here is 100% rye, and my wildcard ingredient is an entire bag of crushed, freeze-dried blueberries. The cookies are extra-large, perfect for cutting into quarters to serve on a cookie plate. If baking from frozen, increase baking time by 4-6 minutes.

INGREDIENTS
  • 14 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature, sliced
  • 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 1/4 cup rye flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon fine grain sea salt
  • 1.2 oz bag (1 cup) freeze-dried blueberries, crushed
INSTRUCTIONS
  1. Preheat the oven to 350F, with a rack in the middle. Line two baking pans with parchment paper.
  2. Beat the butter, by hand or mixer, in a large bowl until light and fluffy. Add the sugars, then beat until uniform. Stir in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined. Add the rye flour, and then sprinkle with baking soda, salt, and raspberries. Stir just until the dough is combined.
  3. Form the dough into twelve 70g balls, approximately 1/4 cup each. Place 6 on each baking sheet. Put in the freezer for 15 minutes prior to baking, or chill, refrigerated, overnight. Bake, one sheet at a time, until the cookie edges are deeply golden, 15-18 minutes or so. Transfer to a baking rack to cool completely.
NOTES

Makes 12 cookies.

Gimlet Cocktail

best gimlet

The gimlet is a classic cocktail that deserves more attention! Made with gin, lime juice and sweetened with simple syrup, it comes from the sour family of cocktails (my specialty). Save the elaborate cocktails with unrecognizable ingredients for ordering at fancy bars—a simple, citrusy, not-too-sweet cocktail at home is one of life’s simple pleasures.

The gimlet is light and bright, like a more casual version of a martini that you can sip slowly on a porch. I love a gimlet in the spring or summer—they’re fresh and just right. If you enjoy ordering a good gin cocktail or a margarita made with real lime juice, you will love a homemade gimlet.
