AlleyKat's "Blueberry Cobbler To-Go" Blueberry Oat Cookie

This recipe makes the best cookie I've ever eaten -- a blueberry oat cookie with a hint of lemon and the spice of ginger (the photo is my finished product). I modified this from a Blueberry Oat cookie recipe from allrecipes.com which used only vanilla extract and cinnamon instead of ginger (this seemed too oatmeal-cookie-like and thus too autumnal for such a lovely summer fruit). A fruit-filled cookie that vanishes before they've had time to cool.

INGREDIENTS

1/2 cup butter, softened
1 cup packed brown sugar
1 egg
3/4 tsp Lemon Extract
¼ tsp Vanilla Extract
1 1/2 cups quick-cooking oats
1 cup all-purpose flour or whole wheat flour
1 teaspoon ground ginger
Pinch salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup fresh blueberries

DIRECTIONS

1. In a mixing bowl, cream butter and brown sugar. Beat in egg and flavoring. Combine oats, flour, ginger, salt, baking soda and baking powder; gradually add to the creamed mixture. Stir in the blueberries.
2. Drop by heaping tablespoonfuls 2 in. apart onto lightly greased baking sheets. Bake at 350 degrees F for 12-14 minutes or until golden brown. Remove to wire racks to cool.
