Ingredients
Scale
Cookie Dough
- 1 cup salted butter, softened
- ½ cup light brown sugar
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 Tablespoon vanilla extract
- 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup white chocolate chips
- ½ cup raspberries, chopped
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper to prevent sticking and set them aside.
- Cream Butter and Sugars: In a large mixing bowl, place the softened butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Mix on low speed for about 2 minutes or until the mixture is fluffy and well combined. This step ensures a tender cookie texture.
- Add Egg and Vanilla: Mix in the egg and vanilla extract gently just until they are incorporated into the mixture.
- Incorporate Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt into the wet ingredients. Mix only until combined to avoid overworking the dough, which can cause tough cookies.
- Fold In Mix-Ins: Gently fold in the white chocolate chips and chopped raspberries. Be careful not to overmix or crush the raspberries, stirring just a couple of times.
- Shape Cookies: Using a small cookie scoop or tablespoon (about 1 ½ tablespoons of dough), roll the dough into balls. Place them on the prepared cookie sheets with a few inches of space between each, aiming for about 10 cookies per sheet.
- Bake: Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the centers are set and the edges look lightly golden. Baking times may vary depending on your oven, so keep an eye on them.
- Cool: Carefully remove the baking sheets from the oven. Allow the cookies to cool on the sheets so they can firm up before transferring to a wire rack or serving. Enjoy these delightful cookies once cooled.
Notes
- Do not overmix the dough to keep cookies tender and chewy.
- Handle raspberries gently to avoid them turning mushy in the dough.
- If fresh raspberries are not available, frozen raspberries can be used but should be thawed and drained well.
- Use parchment paper or silicone baking mats for easy cleanup and to prevent sticking.
- Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
