Ingredients
  

  • 2 3/4 cups All-Purpose Flour (344g)
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon Baking Powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt
  • 2 Lemon room temperature
  • 1 1/2 cups Granulated Sugar (300g)
  • 1 cup Unsalted Butter (230g), room temperature
  • 1 large Egg room temperature
  • 2/3 cup Raspberry Jam
  • 1 pint Fresh Raspberries
  • Powdered Sugar

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a 9 x 9 inch baking pan with parchment paper so the paper overhangs on each side.
  • Mix together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  • Zest both lemons and squeeze the juice from one of the lemons.
  • Beat the butter, sugar, zest, and lemon juice for about 2 - 3 minutes on medium-high speed.
  • Beat in the egg and mix on medium-high speed for about 1 - 2 minutes.
  • Mix in the flour mixture and mix until just incorporated.
  • Press in about 2/3 of the cookie dough into the baking pan.
  • Spread the jam over the cookie dough.
  • Crumble the rest of the cookie dough over the jam. Top with the fresh raspberries.
  • Bake for about 35 - 40 minutes, cover the pan about 20 minutes through to prevent over-browning. Cool completely before cutting and dusting with powdered sugar.
