These bright and cheerful Raspberry Lemonade Cookies capture the perfect balance of sweet and tart flavors in a soft, tender cookie. With a buttery base, zesty lemon, and bursts of raspberry, these cookies bring the refreshing taste of summer to your dessert plate any time of year.
Techniques: Creaming butter and sugar, folding in delicate ingredients, proper cookie portioning, glazing
These bright and tangy cookies are simple to make but deliver big on flavor. The key is using fresh lemon zest and juice for authentic citrus flavor, and handling the raspberry-studded dough gently to maintain those beautiful berry pockets throughout the cookies.
Store these cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze unglazed cookies for up to 3 months. For a fun variation, try using freeze-dried raspberries instead of fresh for more intense color and flavor without the added moisture.
