Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup light brown sugar, packed
- 1 large egg, room temperature
- 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
- 1 tbsp lemon zest (about 1 large lemon)
- 2.25 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 0.5 tsp fine sea salt
- 1.25 cups frozen raspberries (do not thaw)
- 1 cup powdered sugar (optional glaze)
- 3–4 tbsp fresh lemon juice (optional glaze)
- 1 tsp lemon zest (optional glaze)
Equipment
- large mixing bowl
- electric mixer (hand or stand)
- two large baking sheets
- Parchment paper
- Wooden spoon or spatula
- cookie scoop (1 tbsp)
- microplane zester
- wire cooling rack
Method
- Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C). Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, beat butter with granulated and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 4 minutes with an electric mixer.
- Mix in egg, vanilla, lemon juice, and lemon zest until fully combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually add dry ingredients to wet ingredients on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Gently fold frozen raspberries into the dough with a spoon or spatula; some breaking is expected.
- Scoop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the sheets, 2 inches apart. Bake 12–14 minutes until edges are set and centers look slightly underbaked.
- Cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes
Keep raspberries frozen until folding into dough to prevent bleeding and maintain texture. Use a cookie scoop for consistent size. Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days or freeze baked cookies for up to 3 months. For gluten-free, substitute with a 1:1 GF flour blend.
Optional glaze: Whisk powdered sugar, lemon juice, and zest until smooth; drizzle over cooled cookies.
