These Raspberry Cookies are soft, chewy, and filled with vibrant bursts of fresh raspberries. Perfect for any occasion, they strike a delightful balance between sweetness and fruity flavor.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup light brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups fresh raspberries

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Workspace: Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper and preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  3. Cream Butter and Sugars: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened unsalted butter with both the granulated sugar and light brown sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  4. Add Eggs and Vanilla: Reduce the mixer speed to low and beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the pure vanilla extract.
  5. Combine Wet and Dry: Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined.
  6. Gently Fold in Raspberries: Carefully fold in the fresh or lightly frozen raspberries by hand using a rubber spatula.
  7. Scoop and Bake: Drop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
  8. Bake to Perfection: Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers are still soft.
  9. Cool: Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Nutrition

Keywords: Handle raspberries gently to avoid crushing them. Consider chilling the dough for improved texture and flavor. For added flavor, try incorporating lemon zest or white chocolate chips.
