Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, and a pinch of salt.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together ½ cup of softened unsalted butter and 1 cup of granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Add 1 large egg and 2 tablespoons of fresh lemon juice to the butter-sugar mixture and mix until smooth.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined.
  6. Fold in 1 cup of fresh raspberries carefully using a spatula.
  7. Drop rounded balls of dough onto the baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches of space between them.
  8. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden but the centers remain soft.
  9. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
