Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 1 large egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup fresh raspberries, plus extra for topping
• 1/4 cup raspberry sauce (store-bought or homemade)

How to Make Raspberry Topped Cookies

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
3. In a large bowl, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
4. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
5. Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
6. Gently fold in the fresh raspberries, being careful not to break them apart.
7. Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
8. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers look set.
9. Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
10. Once cooled, drizzle the raspberry sauce over the cookies and top each with a few fresh raspberries.

Tips for the Best Results

• Ensure your butter is at room temperature for easier creaming with sugar.
• Do not overmix the dough after adding the flour to keep the cookies soft.
• Use fresh raspberries for the best flavor and texture; if using frozen, make sure they are thawed and drained.
• Allow cookies to cool completely before adding the raspberry sauce to prevent it from running off.

Easy Variations

• Substitute half of the all-purpose flour with almond flour for a nutty flavor.
• Add a pinch of lemon zest to the cookie dough for a refreshing citrus twist.
• Top with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an indulgent dessert.

What to Serve With It

• A dollop of whipped cream or vanilla ice cream
• A cup of hot tea or coffee
• Fresh fruit salad for a light side
• A glass of sparkling water for a refreshing contrast
• Chocolate sauce for those who love a chocolatey twist

Store any leftover cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. To maintain their texture, it’s best to add the raspberry sauce just before serving. If you need to reheat, place them in a preheated oven at 300°F (150°C) for about 5 minutes.
