Each cookie has a slightly cracked surface with a round shape and soft texture. On top of each cookie, there is a dollop of white creamy filling mixed with a dark red berry jam that looks thick and slightly glossy. One cookie is broken in half and held above the others by a woman's hand, revealing a soft, crumbly inside with swirls of the white filling and dark red jam. The whole scene looks warm and inviting with soft lighting. Photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

FAQs

Can I use frozen raspberries instead of fresh?

It’s best to use fresh raspberries to avoid excess moisture, but if using frozen, thaw and drain them well to prevent the filling from becoming too watery.

How do I prevent the cream cheese filling from leaking during baking?

Make sure to seal the dough completely around the filling and avoid overfilling. Chilling the assembled cookies briefly before baking can also help them hold their shape better.
