Ingredients

• 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1 large egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
• 2 cups powdered sugar
• 1 cup fresh raspberries
• Extra raspberries for garnish

How to Make Raspberry Cream Sandwich Cookies

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
3. Add the egg and vanilla extract to the mixture, beating well until combined.
4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
6. Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
7. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Remove from the oven and allow to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
8. While the cookies cool, prepare the cream filling. In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth.
9. Gradually add the powdered sugar, mixing until the filling is creamy and well combined.
10. Once the cookies are completely cool, spread a generous amount of the cream filling on the flat side of half the cookies. Top with fresh raspberries and sandwich with the remaining cookies.
11. Garnish the sandwich cookies with extra raspberries on top for an added touch of elegance.

Tips for the Best Results

• Make sure your butter and cream cheese are at room temperature for a smooth and creamy filling.
• Don’t skip the cooling step for the cookies; it helps them hold their shape when assembled.
• Use fresh, ripe raspberries for the best flavor and presentation.

Easy Variations

• Swap out the raspberries for strawberries or blueberries for a different fruity twist.
• Add a splash of lemon juice to the cream filling for a zesty kick.
• Mix in some chopped nuts to the cookie dough for added texture.

What to Serve With It

• A glass of cold milk or a warm cup of tea.
• Fresh fruit salad for a refreshing side.
• Vanilla ice cream for an indulgent dessert duo.
