The delicious White Chocolate Raspberry Cookies use freeze dried raspberries and white chocolate chips for a perfectly sweet and fruity bite the whole family will love!
I absolutely love using freeze dried fruit in baked goods because you get all that fresh, fruity flavor without the pesky added moisture from fresh produce.
These sweet and slightly tangy cookies are my husband's favorite and make a great addition to holiday cookie boxes. You can even sub out the freeze dried raspberries for strawberries or even blackberries for a delicious twist. Enjoy!

Recipe FAQs
Unfortunately no. Fresh raspberries contain too much moisture and won't produce the same results.
Chilling the dough allows the fat to cool and solidify, meaning that it will melt more slowly during the baking process and the cookies will hold their texture and shape. Skipping this step could result in flat, over spread cookies that simply aren't as enjoyable.

These would be delicious with a cup of coffee, or perhaps just a glass of milk even. I prefer white chocolate in a cookie over milk chocolate.
Raspberry and white chocolate is a match made in heaven - these look SO incredibly good, I'm trying them at the weekend with the kids!
I'm loving this flavor combination. Makes for one amazing cookie.
Perfect in every way! I couldn't find freeze dried raspberries so I used strawberries and they were delish! Worked perfectly!
Absolutely delicious cookies; thank you for this fantastic recipe! I will make it again!!
