Lemon Raspberry Cookies

Deliciously chewy cookies with tangy lemon and juicy raspberries that provide a burst of flavor in every bite.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • Zest and juice of 1 lemon
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen raspberries

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Cream the butter and sugar together in a large bowl until fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. Add the egg and vanilla, beating until combined.
  4. Zest the lemon directly over the bowl and add the lemon juice, mixing well.
  5. Mix in the flour, baking powder, and salt until a dough forms.
  6. Gently fold in the raspberries, taking care not to crush them.
  7. Scoop the dough into balls and place them a few inches apart on the prepared baking sheet.
  8. Bake for 12-14 minutes until the edges are set and the centers are slightly soft.
  9. Let cool on the tray for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes

For best results, chill the dough for 20 minutes before baking. Use fresh lemon juice for brighter flavor.
