# Ingredients:

→ Wet Ingredients

01 - 1 ⅛ cup melted unsalted butter
02 - 1 cup granulated sugar
03 - ½ cup packed brown sugar
04 - 2 large eggs
05 - 1 tablespoon vanilla extract

→ Dry Ingredients

06 - 2 ⅔ cups all-purpose flour
07 - 1 tablespoon cornstarch
08 - ½ teaspoon baking soda
09 - ½ teaspoon baking powder
10 - 1 teaspoon salt

→ Blueberry Jam Ingredients

11 - 2 cups fresh blueberries
12 - ⅓ cup white granulated sugar
13 - 1 tablespoon lemon juice

# Steps:

01 - In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter, stirring as it foams, turns amber, and brown solids form at the bottom. Once golden and fragrant, remove from heat. Transfer to a bowl and cool for 20 minutes.
02 - In a bowl, sift together flour, cornstarch, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
03 - In a large bowl, combine the cooled brown butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Stir until smooth, then mix in eggs and vanilla.
04 - Gradually fold dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.
05 - Wrap dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
06 - While dough chills, combine blueberries, sugar, and lemon juice in a saucepan. Cook on medium, stirring, until thickened, about 30 minutes. Set aside.
07 - Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment. Scoop 3 oz balls of dough, placing them 2 inches apart. Bake for 12 minutes, until edges are golden and centers soft.
08 - Let the cookies rest just for a minute or two then gently press the center of each with a small glass or shot glass to create a well for the blueberry jam. Spoon the prepared blueberry jam into each well, filling to the top. Serve and enjoy this irresistibly delicious treat!

# Notes:

01 - Ensure the butter is cooled to room temperature before mixing to avoid excess cookie spreading.
