Ingredients
  

2 cups all-purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 cup unsalted butter, softened

1 cup granulated sugar

1/2 cup powdered sugar

1 large egg

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

1 cup fresh raspberries, lightly crushed

1 tablespoon lemon zest

Sugar for rolling (granulated)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lining two baking sheets with parchment paper.

    Combine Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set this mixture aside.

      Cream Butter and Sugars: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and powdered sugar together until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes.

        Mix in Egg and Vanilla: Add the egg and vanilla extract to the creamed butter and sugars, mixing until well incorporated.

          Incorporate Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture into the wet mixture, stirring just until combined. Be careful not to overmix.

            Add Raspberries and Lemon Zest: Gently fold in the crushed raspberries and lemon zest, ensuring they're evenly distributed throughout the dough.

              Shape Cookies: Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of the dough and roll them into balls. Roll each ball in granulated sugar before placing them on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

                Bake: Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden but the centers are still soft. Keep an eye on them to prevent overbaking.

                  Cool Down: Once baked, remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

                    Serve and Enjoy: Once cooled, enjoy your delightful raspberry sugar cookies with a glass of milk or enjoy them on their own!
