Soft & chewy Raspberry Cheesecake Cookies topped with white chocolate are the perfect cookies for any celebration. Make for Christmas, Mother’s Day & summer holidays.
My friends, have you ever had a cheesecake cookie? They are soft, creamy and not overly sweet, but just right. We loaded these with dried raspberries and white chocolate chips because that really is the perfect pairing when it comes to cheesecake, isn’t it?!
I was wanting to make some cheesecake cookies when my son asked me what I planned on doing with all the dehydrated raspberries we made with our summer harvest. My first thought was to just let him enjoy them in his oatmeal. But then I realized just how delectable they would be when paired with a cheesecake cookie.

Then I thought that white chocolate really is the perfect pairing when it comes to cheesecake and raspberries, so those little white chocolate chips had to go in there too. Plus, it gives a little added sweetness to the cookies since they aren’t too sweet by themselves.
Here are some commonly asked questions
Where can I find dehydrated or freeze-dried raspberries?
I made my own with our dehydrator over the summer. But you can use freeze-dried raspberries in this recipe which can be found at most health food stores or online. Check these out on Amazon.
Can I use fresh raspberries?
I would discourabut the liquid will alsong that. Not only will the berries get crushed while mixing the dough, the liquid will drain out of the berries during the baking process, leaving a mess and very ugly cookies.
