Ingredients
  

Baking Ingredients

  • ½ cup unsalted butter, softened 113g
  • ½ cup packed light brown sugar 110g
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar 50g
  • 2 teaspoons freshly grated lemon zest
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice 5ml
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract 5ml
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour 215g
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¾ cup frozen raspberries, crumbled 85g

Instructions
 

Cooking Steps

  • Combine the soft butter, both sugars and lemon zest in a large bowl and beat using an electric hand mixer or a stand mixer for 1-2 minutes on medium speed until it is pale and fluffy. Beat in the egg until well combined. Mix in lemon juice and vanilla extract.
  • Combine flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl and whisk to blend evenly. Add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture and fold it in by hand until mostly incorporated.
  • Crumble up the frozen raspberries and then fold them in gently until evenly distributed. Place the bowl in the fridge while you preheat the oven.
  • Preheat your oven to 350°F. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Use a medium spring-loaded ice cream scoop or two large spoons to scoop mounds of dough onto parchment-lined baking sheets. Bake for 12-14 minutes until golden brown around the edges and golden on the top. Let them cool for a minute on the baking sheets and then transfer to a wire rack to finish cooling.

Notes

If you mix in the raspberries too much, the dough will turn completely red instead of having streaks of red against the lemon-colored dough.
