Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).

In a bowl, cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy.

Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.

Stir in lemon zest and lemon juice until combined.

In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.

Gradually add dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.

Gently fold in blueberries to avoid crushing them.

Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Bake for 10-12 minutes until edges are lightly golden.

Remove from oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes.

Transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
