A delightful combination of tangy lemon, juicy raspberries, and creamy white chocolate, these cookies are soft, chewy, and perfect for parties or cozy nights in.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup light brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest
  • 1 cup fresh raspberries
  • 1 cup white chocolate chunks
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line your baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to cream the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
  4. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Mix until smooth.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing on low speed until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
  6. Gently fold in the raspberries and white chocolate chunks with a spatula, being careful not to crush the raspberries.
  7. Scoop out the dough using a spoon or cookie scoop. Place them on the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
  8. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are slightly golden. The centers will still look soft—don’t worry, they’ll firm up as they cool.
  9. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack.

Notes

[‘Use room temperature ingredients for even mixing and smoother dough.’, ‘Avoid overmixing to ensure the cookies remain soft and chewy.’, ‘Chill the dough for 15-20 minutes if it feels too soft to prevent spreading.’, ‘Save a few white chocolate chunks and raspberries to press onto the tops of the dough balls before baking for a picture-perfect look.’]
