  • 1 roll (16.5 oz) refrigerated Pillsbury™ Sugar Cookie Dough
  • 1/3 cup flour
  • 4 tablespoons chia seeds
  • 2 lemons, zested and squeezed

  • 1/8 teaspoon Betty Crocker™ yellow gel food color
  • 1 tablespoon lemon rind or candied lemon rind for garnish (optional)

    Preheat oven to 350°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Set aside.

    In a large bowl, knead together cookie dough, flour, 3 tablespoons of chia seeds, and lemon zest until well combined. Gently fold frozen blueberries into the dough. Do not overmix.
  • Step

    4
    In a small bowl, mix together lemon juice, powdered sugar, and food coloring. Add just enough water (if needed) to make the glaze slightly thicker than syrup. Drizzle icing over cookies. Sprinkle with chia seeds and garnish with slices of lemon rind, if desired.
