  • Total Time: 34 minutes
  • Yield: 22 cookies 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • ½ cup salted butter melted and cooled 10 minutes
  • ½ cup light brown sugar packed
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg room temperature
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest
  • 1 ½ tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ cups unbleached all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon cornstarch
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 cup frozen raspberries
  • ½ cup white chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats.
  2. Melt the butter and let it cool for 10 minutes while preparing the other ingredients.
  3. Roughly chop the frozen raspberries and return them to the freezer until needed.
  4. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda, and salt, then set aside.
  5. Zest the lemon and juice it, setting both aside.
  6. In a large bowl, mix the brown sugar, granulated sugar, and lemon zest. Rub together to intensify the flavor.
  7. Add the cooled butter, egg, and vanilla extract to the sugar mix, whisking until smooth. Stir in the lemon juice.
  8. Gradually combine the dry ingredients with the wet until just mixed, being careful not to overmix.
  9. Fold in the frozen raspberries and optional white chocolate chips gently.
