Description
These easy soft raspberry cookies are pillowy tender with bursts of fresh raspberry flavor, perfect for cozy baking with minimal fuss.
Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh raspberries (about 125g)
- 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour (about 220g)
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ cup unsalted butter, softened (115g or 1 stick)
- ¾ cup sugar (a mix of granulated and brown sugar)
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
- Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until fully combined, about 1-2 minutes.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, folding gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Gently fold in the fresh raspberries using a rubber spatula to keep them intact.
- Drop tablespoon-sized mounds of dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing about 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes until edges are set and tops look matte but not browned.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
[‘Use room temperature butter for best creaming results.’, ‘Fold raspberries gently at the end to prevent them from bursting and turning the dough pink.’, ‘Do not overbake; cookies will look slightly underdone when removed but will finish cooking on the baking sheet.’, ‘Chill dough for 30 minutes if you want thicker cookies.’, ‘Use a cookie scoop for uniform cookies.’, ‘Add lemon zest or white chocolate chips for variations.’, ‘Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to a week.’]
