How to make Cream Cheese Raspberry Cookies
Prep
Get started by preheating the oven to 350 F degrees. Then line two cookie sheets with parchment and set them aside.
Dough
Next in a large bowl combine the butter and cream cheese, mix well until smooth.
Then add in the sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract, stir to combine.
In a separate bowl combine the flour, sea salt, and baking powder. Whisk the dry ingredients together.
After that add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture a little at a time, mixing in between additions, until all is incorporated. Now fold in the white chocolate chips and dried raspberries.
Bake
Use a large cookie scoop to make 3 TBSP sized balls of dough and arrange 6 on the prepared baking sheets. Then place the cookies in the preheated oven and bake for 12-14 minutes.
Let the cookies cool on the sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a cooling rack. Serve cookies slightly warm and enjoy!
How long are raspberry cheesecake cookies good for?
If stored in an airtight container at room temperature, you can expect these cookies to last up to 3-5 days and still taste great. For best results, eat sooner rather than later.
Can I freeze raspberry cheesecake cookies?
These cookies can be frozen after cooling down completely. I recommend storing them in an airtight container with a parchment paper layer between cookies to prevent sticking. You could also freeze unbaked dough balls and bring them to room temperature before baking as directed.
Common mistakes to avoid when making cookies
One common mistake when making Raspberry Cheesecake Cookies is overmixing the dough. Overmixing can cause the cookies to become tough and dense. Another mistake is not allowing the cream cheese to come to room temperature before mixing it with the other ingredients. Cold cream cheese can result in lumpy batter. It is also important to avoid overbaking the cookies, as this can cause them to become dry and crumbly.

We’re nearly done with yet another basketball season and I have to tell you, it’s not going well. Ha! Truly though, my son’s team has lost most of their games. This new league is TOUGH. But you know what? Sometimes as a mom, I think the losing seasons are more beneficial than the winning ones. There’s so many things you learn about being a good teammate, having a positive mental outlook & a good attitude.
All these things are EASY when you’re winning, you know? But when you’re losing? You’ve got to dig deep! I’m so proud of my cute son for doing just that. It hasn’t been easy, but I’m so pleased with the season he’s having. Another mom snapped this cute picture and sent it to me. I LOVE IT. Father & Son, together.

Do most grocery stores carry dehydrated raspberries?

I would assume so, but it probably depends on the store(s) you have near you/shop at.
