Description

Delightful cookies with a crisp edge and a soft, chewy center, bursting with juicy raspberries and bright lemon flavor.


Ingredients

Scale
  • ½ cup (100 g) granulated sugar
  • Zest of 1 large lemon
  • ½ cup (113 g) butter, room temperature
  • ¼ cup (55 g) brown sugar
  • 1 large egg yolk
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice (about half a lemon)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp baking powder
  • ¼ tsp baking soda
  • 1¼ cups (175 g) all-purpose flour
  • ¾ cup (75 g) frozen raspberries, chopped
  • Flaked salt, for sprinkling

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line your baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Rub the granulated sugar and lemon zest together in a mixing bowl until fragrant.
  3. Cream the butter and brown sugar using an electric mixer for 3–4 minutes until light and fluffy.
  4. Mix in the egg yolk, lemon juice, and vanilla extract until combined.
  5. Gradually add the salt, baking powder, baking soda, and flour, mixing gently until just combined.
  6. Fold in the frozen chopped raspberries with a spatula.
  7. Scoop out the dough into 3-tablespoon balls and place them on the baking sheets, spaced apart.
  8. Sprinkle flaked salt on top and bake for 12–15 minutes until golden around the edges.
  9. Cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes

For best results, mix gently to keep the cookies tender, and allow them to cool on the baking sheet to set properly.
