Instructions
- Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

The Secret to Perfect Texture
The key to achieving that irresistible chewy texture lies in:
- Using softened butter, not melted
- Avoiding overmixing once flour is added
- Slightly underbaking for soft centers
Raspberries release moisture during baking, which keeps the cookies tender and soft.
Flavor Pairing Magic
Raspberries and chocolate are a timeless duo:
- Raspberries: Bright, tangy, slightly floral
- Chocolate chips: Rich, sweet, indulgent
Together, they create a bakery-quality cookie with complex flavor layers.
Tips for Best Results
- Use fresh or frozen raspberries (do not thaw frozen ones)
- Chill dough for 20 minutes if too soft
- Use parchment paper to prevent sticking
- Sprinkle extra chocolate chips on top before baking for presentation
