These easy blueberry cookies are also the best: light as air with crispy exteriors and soft, fruit-filled middles.

Note: I've had people ask me if you really have to chill cookie dough before baking. The answer is that you can get away with skipping it in some recipes, but with these cookies, it is absolutely necessary. The dough will be too soft to bake before a good two hours in the fridge, so plan accordingly.
