Lemon Raspberry Cookies

Categories: Cookies | Snack | Dessert

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup butter (softened)
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 large egg (at room temperature)
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 lemon zested (zested)
  • 1 lemon (juiced)
  • 1/4 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda
  • 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1.5 cup frozen raspberries

Preparation:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer, cream together the butter and sugar on medium power until light and fluffy (approximately 3 minutes).
  • On low, add the vanilla extract, egg, lemon zest, and lemon juice to the bowl and mix well.
  • Scrape down the sides of the bowl when needed.
  • In a separate bowl, sift together the baking powder, baking soda and flour.
  • With the mixer on low, slowly add the dry ingredients to the bowl and mix until just combined.
  • Use a rubber spatula or wood spoon and mix in the frozen raspberries (do not overmix!)
  • Using a cookie scoop, drop the dough onto the prepared cookie sheet (approximately 1 heaping tablespoon).
  • The dough is extremely sticky so it is much more difficult, messy and time consuming to use a spoon, so use a scooper if you have one
  • Bake for approximately 14-16 minutes or until they are no longer shiny on the top and just starting to brown around the edges.
  • Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes before moving to a wire rack to cool completely.
