Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup unsalted butter Softened butter ensures a rich, creamy texture.
  • 1 cup granulated sugar Adds sweetness and helps achieve a lovely golden color.
  • 2 large eggs Provides moisture and structure to the cookies.
  • 2 teaspoons lemon zest Infuses a fresh, citrusy flavor that brightens the cookies.
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Enhances the overall flavor profile with warmth.
  • 2.5 cups all-purpose flour Forms the base of the cookie dough.
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder Helps the cookies rise to a soft, chewy texture.
  • 0.5 teaspoon baking soda Provides additional lift and contributes to browning.
  • 0.25 teaspoon salt Balances sweetness and enhances flavors.
  • 0.5 cup raspberry preserves Introduces a fruity swirl that complements lemon beautifully.
  • 0.5 cup white chocolate chips Melting them gives an indulgent finish to each cookie.

Method
 

  1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure even baking.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the softened unsalted butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, which typically takes about 3-5 minutes.
  3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition before stirring in the lemon zest and vanilla extract for that signature flavor burst.
  4. In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined before gradually adding them to your wet ingredients.
  5. Gently fold in the raspberry preserves into the dough, being careful not to overmix; you want those beautiful swirls!
  6. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto your prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart, then bake for 10-12 minutes until edges are lightly golden before cooling on a wire rack.
