Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper and lightly spray with nonstick spray. Set them aside.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set it aside.
Using a stand mixer or a medium-sized mixing bowl and a handheld mixer on medium-high speed, cream the butter, cream cheese, and granulated sugar for 1 to 1½ minutes.
Add the sour cream, egg, and vanilla extract. Mix until completely combined.
Lower the mixer speed to low, and add in the flour mixture. Mix just until the dry ingredients are well incorporated. Do not overmix.
Fold in the white chocolate chips and the blueberries.
Using either a 1 to 1½ tablespoon cookie scoop, scoop out the cookie dough. Space the dough 2 inches apart. Bake for 12 to 14 minutes, until the edges are golden.
Allow the cookies to cool on the cookie sheet for 5 to 8 minutes before moving to a cooling rack.

If you're using fresh blueberries, make sure to wash and thoroughly dry them before adding them to your dough. Excess water can affect the consistency of your dough.
Ensure that your butter, cream cheese, and egg are at room temperature before starting this recipe. This will help them blend together more smoothly and create a better texture in your cookies.
After adding the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mix just until the dry ingredients are well incorporated. Overmixing can lead to dense, tough cookies.
When folding in the blueberries, be gentle to avoid bursting them. This will help keep the dough from turning purple and keep the blueberries intact for a nice burst of flavor in each cookie.
Oven temperatures vary and may need to be recalibrated periodically to ensure they are accurate. Make sure to check your cookies at the lower end of the recommended baking time.
Since this recipe will use multiple baking sheets, here are a few tips:
- Don't place the cookies too close together on the baking sheet. They will spread out as they bake, and you don't want them to bake into each other.
- For the most even baking, bake one sheet of cookies at a time in the center of the oven. If you need to bake more than one sheet at a time, rotate the sheets halfway through the baking time.
- Allow your baking sheets to cool completely between batches. Placing cookie dough on a hot baking sheet can cause the cookies to start spreading before they even get into the oven.
