Ingredients
Cookies
- 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¾ cup unsalted butter softened
- 1 ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon lemon zest
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 ½ cup frozen raspberries (see note)
Glaze
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice plus more as needed
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside
- In a medium mixing bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, mix the butter, sugar, and lemon zest until smooth and fluffy, about 1-2 minutes. Add the egg, vanilla, and lemon juice and mix to combine.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in 3 additions, mixing until just combined after each addition.
- Gently stir in the raspberries with a rubber spatula until evenly distributed.
- Carefully scoop the cookie dough using a medium cookie scoop (about 2 tablespoons) onto the prepared baking sheet. Leave about 2 inches between the cookies as they will spread.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the cookies are just turning golden around the edges and they're no longer glossy on top.
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes. Then transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Mix together the powdered sugar and lemon juice in a medium mixing bowl until your desired glaze consistency is reached. (see note) Drizzle lemon glaze over the cooled cookies before serving.

Notes
- The raspberries must be frozen otherwise they will break too small when mixing them into the dough. This also helps prevent the color from bleeding into the cookies too much.
- The cookie dough will seem a little drier than other cookie doughs, but it's okay because the raspberries have lots of moisture in them that they release while baking.

- If the glaze is too thick, add a little more lemon juice and mix. If it's too thin, add more powdered sugar (1 TBSP at a time) until thickened to your liking.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container for 2-3 days on the counter, 3-4 days in the fridge, or 2-3 months in the freezer.
