Instructions
Cookies
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Make dough. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups flour, 1/2 cup sugar, and 2 teaspoons baking powder. Mix 1/2 cup cold butter in with a pastry cutter, whisk, or use your hands until it's crumbly and combined.
Add wet ingredients. Stir in 2/3 cup heavy cream, zest of 1/2 lemon, and 1 Tablespoon lemon juice just until combined and a thick dough forms. If the dough is too dry, add 1 more Tablespoon cream. Gently fold or press in raspberries.
Drop cookies. Using a large cookie scoop, drop dough 2 inches apart onto the baking sheet.
Bake 12 to 15 minutes, or until lightly golden around the edges. Let cool 5 minutes on the baking sheet before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely, about 25 minutes.
Glaze
In a medium bowl, stir together 1 cup powdered sugar and 2 Tablespoons lemon juice until smooth.
Drizzle over cooled cookies. Enjoy!
