Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C).

In a medium mixing bowl, combine ½ cup of softened unsalted butter and 1 cup of granulated sugar. Beat the mixture until light and fluffy.

Next, crack in 1 large egg and add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Beat until well incorporated.

In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, and ¼ teaspoon of salt.

Slowly add the dry mixture to the butter mixture while mixing on low speed. Mix until just combined.

Gently fold in 1 cup of fresh raspberries using a spatula.

Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, drop rounded tablespoons of the dough onto your prepared baking sheet.

Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake your Raspberry Sugar Cookies for 10-12 minutes.

Once baked, remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes.
