Several months ago my sister-in-law sent a package with two kinds of cookies among other various things. I took one look at the label on the blueberry cookies and tossed them aside. She is a very talented baker so I'm not sure what I was thinking but I had no interest in eating a blueberry cookie.
Besides blueberries only belong in muffins, cakes and scones right? Wrong!
A while later when I was hungry for a snack I finally took a bite of one of the cookies and had to use extreme willpower not to eat the entire package before my family got home. Why? Because they were salted - that's why! The flavor was completely unexpected and addicting.
I never did ask for the recipe or ask if the salt was intentional (or if she just accidentally added too much) but since I could not stop thinking about them this is my take on salted blueberry cookies. They have that sweet and salty combination of a trail mix secretly hiding in cookie form! They are delicious!
Enjoy!

in reply to Jan 11, 2013. 12:50 PMReplyI would say it would be okay to freeze the dough if you wanted to make it a few days in advance but these cookies are really fast to make. I can't say it would really be necessary.
