Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Add-ins

  • 1 cup fresh raspberries
  • 1 cup semi-sweet or dark chocolate chunks

Instructions

  1. Prep Your Ingredients: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper to prevent sticking. Measure all ingredients accurately for best results.
  2. Cream the Butter and Sugars: Using a stand mixer or hand mixer, beat the softened unsalted butter with both brown and granulated sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy to create the perfect cookie texture.
  3. Add Eggs and Vanilla: Mix in the eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next. Stir in vanilla extract to enhance aroma and flavor.
  4. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture into the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined to avoid overworking the dough.
  5. Fold in Raspberries and Chocolate Chunks: Gently fold fresh raspberries and chocolate chunks into the dough, taking care not to crush the raspberries to keep their shape and juiciness intact.
  6. Portion and Bake: Scoop dough onto the prepared baking sheets using a cookie scoop or spoon, spacing each cookie about 2 inches apart. Bake for 12-15 minutes until edges are lightly golden but centers remain soft.

Notes

  • Use room temperature butter for smooth mixing and even texture.
  • Don’t overmix the dough to prevent tough cookies.
  • Handle raspberries gently to keep them intact and avoid coloring the dough pink.
  • If possible, chill the dough before baking to meld flavors and reduce spreading.
  • Choose high-quality chocolate chunks for the best flavor impact.
