Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 0.5 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 4 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 0.75 cup granulated sugar
  • 0.25 cup light brown sugar, packed
  • 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 0.25 tsp baking soda
  • 0.5 tsp fine sea salt
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips
  • 0.75 cup freeze-dried raspberries, lightly crushed
  • 1 tsp fresh lemon zest (optional)
  • 1 tbsp milk Use only if the dough looks dry

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment.
  • Whisk flour, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a bowl.
  • Beat softened butter and cream cheese until completely smooth and creamy.
  • Add granulated and brown sugars. Beat until pale and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
  • Mix in vanilla until combined.
  • Add dry ingredients and mix on low just until no dry spots remain. If crumbly, splash in the milk.
  • Fold in white chocolate chips, crushed raspberries, and lemon zest.
  • Scoop 1½-tablespoon mounds onto sheets, spacing about 2 inches apart. Chill the trays 15 minutes.
  • Bake 11–12 minutes, until edges set and tops look matte but pale.
  • Cool on the sheet 5 minutes, then transfer to a rack to finish cooling.

Notes

Variation: Swap freeze-dried raspberries with freeze-dried strawberries, or drizzle cooled cookies with melted white chocolate. Storage: Keep airtight at room temperature for 3 days, or freeze up to 2 months; thaw at room temp.
