Ingredients

Scale

For the Cookie Dough

  • 10 tbsp unsalted butter, room temperature (141 grams)
  • 1 1/4 cup granulated sugar (225 grams)
  • 1 large egg, room temperature
  • 1 large egg yolk, room temperature
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 1/4 cup all-purpose flour (283 grams)
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2/3 cup frozen raspberries (85 grams)
  • 3/4 cup white chocolate chips (or chopped white chocolate) (127 grams)

For the Raspberry Glaze

  • 1/2 cup fresh or frozen raspberries
  • 1 cup powdered sugar (125 grams)
  • 24 tsp milk or water

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Butter: Beat the butter in a mixer at medium-high speed for 1 minute until smooth.
  2. Add Sugar: Mix in the granulated sugar and beat for 2 more minutes until the mixture becomes creamy and fluffy.
  3. Add Egg: Incorporate the whole egg and mix well, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
  4. Add Egg Yolk and Vanilla: Mix in the egg yolk and vanilla extract until fully combined.
  5. Combine Dry Ingredients: Add the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt to the bowl.
  6. Mix Dough: On low speed, blend the dry ingredients with the wet ingredients until just combined.
  7. Add Raspberries and White Chocolate: Gently fold in the frozen raspberries and white chocolate chips, mixing minimally to keep the raspberries from breaking up.
  8. Scoop Dough: Use a cookie scoop to form small balls of dough and arrange them on a parchment-lined tray.
  9. Freeze Dough: Freeze the cookie balls for about 15 minutes while preheating the oven to 350ºF (175ºC).
  10. Prepare for Baking: After freezing, place cookie balls on a parchment paper-lined or silicone mat baking tray, spacing them at least 2 inches apart.
  11. Bake Cookies: Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, until the cookies are set on the outside and slightly golden.
  12. Cool and Store: Allow cookies to cool, then store at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 3 to 4 days.
  13. Make Raspberry Glaze: Blend raspberries in a food processor with 1 tsp of water or milk to make a liquid juice, then strain to remove seeds.
  14. Mix Glaze: Combine 1 to 2 tbsp of raspberry juice with powdered sugar, whisk until smooth. Add more milk or water if needed to adjust consistency.
  15. Glaze Cookies: Drizzle the glaze over the cooled cookies. Let them rest about 30 minutes for the glaze to set and not be sticky.

Notes

  • Use frozen raspberries when adding to dough to prevent the fruit from breaking down and coloring the dough too much.
  • Chilling the cookie dough before baking helps maintain the shape and prevents spreading.
  • Be gentle when mixing in raspberries to keep them whole.
  • The raspberry glaze adds a fresh tart contrast and can be adjusted in consistency by adding more liquid.
  • Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for best freshness up to 4 days.
