    I love this recipe! The cookies taste just like the top of a blueberry muffin. I also used vanilla instead of almond extract and did not chop the toasted slivered almonds. I brought these to my parent's house for Christmas Eve and they loved them so much they asked that I make a batch for New Year's Day! A total hit! Grazie Giada!

    This recipe makes some great cookies! Perfect texture and very well balanced flavors. On my second batch I left out the almonds and left the blueberries frozen until I incorporated them so they'd stay intact, other than that, its perfect as is!!

    Very good, but it was more of a scone-like texture rather than a cookie. Would make again...goes great with a nice cup of cappucino!

    I saw this cookie demo on Hulu and thought it would make a nice addition to the gift baskets that I am making for the Holidays. With disparate reviews I thought it best to do a test run on my boyfriend. I used two test groups; one with frozen blueberries and one with dried blueberries. The frozen blueberries melded into the batter resulting in a loss of structural integrity. When placed in the oven, the cookie melted out a bit and ended up with a blueberry swirl (somewhat like marbling. Chris said they looked like snowmen poop. He is 26.
    The blueberries that were dried yielded a more structurally sound cookie (stayed in the shape that I placed it in the oven but it was less sweet. Also, it more closely resembled a scone. Chris preferred these over the frozen blueberries.
    I think that if you let the frozen blueberries thaw completely and make sure they are well drained and dried off, then you might not have some the mushiness that I did. I am just not that patient when the batter to something like this tastes as good as it did.

    I have made these cookies many times, however, I do them without almonds, and everytime they don't make it to sundown! These are delicious because they are not as sweet as normal cookies, they are more similar to a scone. I have gotten nothing but compliments when I have made these, they are great!!!! Thanks Giada!

    I only used the egg yolk and had a little difficulty folding the almonds and bluberries in - reading the reviews I will add the whole egg in the future. Also - remove immediately from the baking sheet and put onto the wire racks... this will keep the bottom from getting soggy. Regardless, the tates was phenominal... will def make again.

    They say a way to a man's heart is through his stomach, these cookies sure do the trick. I thought it was so cute of Giada to take a picnic lunch to her man Todd, I have been doing this now for 30 years To all the young brides out there TRUST ME your man will think nothing but loving thoughts of you & how you must really love him to go to the trouble of baking as he bites into these home made cookies They are sooo easy & yummy to boot. I did notice the yolk versus egg I used a whole egg in my recipe BUT make sure you chill the dough in the fridge. You can also try using other fruits for a change such as dried cranberies or cherries when in season
