Preparation
Step 1

Beat the butter, sugar and vanilla on medium high speed in a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Beat in the egg until combined, scraping down the bowl. Reduce the mixer speed to low and beat in the flour mixture and milk in 3 alternating batches. Fold in the blueberries with a rubber spatula.
2. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper, coat with cooking spray. Arrange mounds of batter, about 2 TBS each, 2 inches apart; smooth the tops with a damp finger. Chill until firm, 30 minutes.
3. Bake the cookies until lightly golden brown, rotating the pans halfway through, 10 to 12 minutes. Let cool on pans for 5 minutes, then transfer to a rack to cool completely.
4. Make the filling: Beat the cream cheese, butter, lemon zest and juice, vanilla and salt with a mixer on medium speed until smooth. Beat in the confectioners sugar on low speed until combined.
