Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream unsalted butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2 to 3 minutes.
  3. Add in one egg, lemon zest, and lemon juice to the creamed mixture and beat until well combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt, then gradually add to the wet ingredients, stirring gently.
  5. Gently fold in the fresh raspberries, being careful not to crush them.
  6. Scoop tablespoon-sized mounds of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  7. Bake for approximately 12 minutes, until edges are lightly golden and centers are still soft.
  8. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
