How to Make Lemon Raspberry Cookies
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Cream the softened unsalted butter and granulated sugar together in a mixing bowl until light and fluffy.
Add in the two large eggs and lemon zest. Mix well until everything is combined.
Combine flour, baking powder, and salt in another bowl.
Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.
Fold in the fresh raspberries with care.
Scoop spoonfuls of dough onto a lined baking sheet, leaving space between them.
Bake for 12-15 minutes or until edges are golden brown.
Cool the cookies on a wire rack and dust with powdered sugar before serving.
Optional: Add a sprinkle of lemon zest on top for extra zest and flair.
