Ingredients

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup packed light-brown sugar
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
2 large eggs
2 cups semisweet or milk chocolate chips
1 cup fresh raspberries

Instructions

Prepare the Oven:
Preheat to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper for a non-stick surface.
Combine Dry Ingredients:
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour and baking soda. Set aside.
Cream Butter and Sugars:
Using a mixer, beat butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Add salt, vanilla extract, and eggs; mix until smooth.
Incorporate Dry Ingredients:
Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined. Gently fold in chocolate chips and raspberries to prevent crushing.
Shape and Bake:
Drop heaping tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto prepared baking sheets, spacing them 2 inches apart. Bake for 8–10 minutes or until golden around the edges.
Cool and Serve:
Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 2 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Pro Tips for Best Results

Raspberry Substitutes: Try using dried raspberries or freeze-dried berries for a firmer texture.
Enhance the Flavor: Add a teaspoon of orange zest to the dough for a citrusy twist.
Storage Tip: Store cookies in an airtight container to maintain their softness.
