Step-by-Step Instructions
- Make the Cheesecake Filling: Beat together the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes. Portion out small balls and freeze for 30 minutes.
- Prepare the Cookie Dough: Whisk together the flour, baking soda, cornstarch, and salt. Cream the butter, cream cheese, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, then stir in an egg, vanilla extract, and lemon zest.
- Combine Dry and Wet Ingredients: Gently fold dry ingredients into the creamed mixture, then add blueberries, folding delicately.
- Assemble and Bake: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Scoop cookie dough, flatten, place cheesecake filling in center, and wrap the dough around it. Arrange on baking sheets.
- Baking to Perfection: Bake for 11-13 minutes or until edges are golden and centers remain soft. Avoid overbaking.
- Cool and Serve: Cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Serve warm for the best experience.

Notes
Chill the dough for 30 minutes to reduce spreading. Use the spoon-and-level method for measuring flour accurately. Use frozen blueberries from the bag for best results.
