⭐Why I Love It:
- Fresh Raspberries - I love that these cookies have pockets of raspberry flavor thanks to mixing in fresh raspberries. It's the best combo with the white chocolate chips! If you have extra berries to use, I love to use them up for breakfast on top of a stack of pancakes like these Pancakes without Milk or Muffin Mix Pancakes!
- Super Small Batch Recipe - I love that this single serve cookie recipe makes only two large cookies. It lets me can satisfy my cookie craving without having to make an entire batch of cookies.
- No Mixer Needed - Because it's such a small amount of dough, you can mix it all up by hand using a rubber spatula instead of needing to use an electric or stand mixer.
🥘Ingredients
- Unsalted Butter - Softened to room temperature! As long as your butter is softened, then you can easily mix up the dough by hand. If you use salted butter, just omit the amount of salt by half. When measuring the butter, I prefer to cut from the middle of the stick since the tablespoon markers at the ends of the stick can be off. For a small recipe, it's extra important to be accurate with measurements.
- Brown Sugar - When measuring brown sugar, make sure to pack it into the measuring cup. You can use either light brown sugar or dark brown sugar.
- White Granulated Sugar - You'll use it both in the dough and some extra to roll the dough balls in (optional, but recommended!).
- Egg Yolk - Using only the egg yolk helps keep the recipe super small and it also gives the cookies their chewy/fudgy/almost gooey center. If you want to use up the leftover egg white, you can make this Single Serve White Cake or Single Serve Chocolate Cake recipe!
- Vanilla Extract - For flavor!
- All-Purpose Flour - When measuring flour, make sure to use the 'spoon and level' method. This is where you spoon the flour into the measuring cup and then level off the top. Instead of dipping the measuring cup directly into the flour bin which can lead to over measuring.
- Baking Soda - This is the leavener for the cookie to help them rise.
- Kosher Salt - I like the Diamond Kosher Salt. A small amount of salt is so important to balance the sweetness in cookies. If you use table salt, then I would cut the amount by half.
- White Chocolate Chips - You can also use white chocolate chunks! I also love using white chocolate chips in this Single Serve Red Velvet Cookie recipe or Red Velvet Cake Mix Cookies!
- Fresh Raspberries - I prefer to use fresh raspberries instead of frozen because frozen berries add excess moisture that can cause the cookies to overspread.

🔪Step by Step
This recipe for Single Serve White Chocolate Raspberry Cookies could not be any easier and it's such a fun recipe to use fresh raspberries in!
Photo 1 - In a medium bowl, stir together the softened butter and sugars until combined (I like use a rubber spatula to ‘smoosh’ the mixture against the side of the bowl to really cream things together). Mix in the egg yolk and vanilla extract until well combined.
Photo 2 - Mix in the flour, baking soda, and salt to combine. Fold in the white chocolate chips and fresh raspberries. The raspberries will break apart a little but try not to smoosh them too much. Pop the dough in the fridge while the oven finishes preheating.
Photo 3 - Scoop the dough into large balls and place on a parchment lined baking sheet. I like to press extra white chocolate chips on top.
Photo 4 - Bake until the edges are firm and set and the center is just set. This will take longer than other cookie recipes due to the moisture from the fresh raspberries. Allow to cool for at least 10 minutes on the baking sheet so the cookies can finish cooking on the warm sheet. Enjoy!
💭Recipe Tips
- Softened Butter - In order to mix up the dough, your butter needs to be softened to room temperature. If you're in a pinch you can microwave for just a couple of seconds, but be careful not to melt it!
- Allow to Cool on Baking Sheet - Letting the single serve cookies cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes lets the cookies finish baking on the warm baking sheet so they set up.
- Don't Over Bake - The cookies will finish setting up on the baking sheet so in order to have the gooey (but not raw) insides be sure not to over bake them. The egg yolk helps give the center a gooey/fudgy interior so know that as long as they're set around the edges, golden on the bottom and just set on top then they are baked.
- Use 'Spoon and Level' Method When Measuring Flour - When measuring flour, make sure to use the 'spoon and level' method. This is where you spoon the flour into the measuring cup and then level off the top. Instead of dipping the measuring cup directly into the flour bin which can lead to over measuring.
👩🍳Recipe FAQs
Using only the egg yolk helps keep the single serve cookie recipe super small and it also gives the cookies their chewy/fudgy/almost gooey center. A great way to use the leftover egg white is in this Single Serve Cake recipe!
The spoon and level method is best for measuring flour because it reduces the risk of over measuring. Start by fluffing up the flour int the container then use a spoon to spoon it into the measuring cup and use a knife to level off the top. This is much more accurate than scooping the flour directly from the container with the measuring cup.

Single Serve White Chocolate Raspberry Cookie (Small Batch)
This Single Serve White Chocolate Raspberry Cookie recipe is a super small batch cookie recipe that makes only two large chewy cookies that are loaded with pockets of fresh raspberry and melty white chocolate chips. Perfect to satisfy your cookie craving!
- Prep Time: 5 minutes
- Cook Time: 15 minutes
- Total Time: 40 minutes
- Yield: 2 large cookies
- Category: Desserts, Cookies, Single Serve
- Method: Oven
- Cuisine: American
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
- 3 tablespoons packed brown sugar, light or dark
- 1.5 tablespoons white sugar
- ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 egg yolk
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- ¼ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- 2-3 tablespoons white chocolate chips
- ~3 tablespoons Fresh raspberries, or 8-10 whole raspberries
Instructions
- Cream Butter and Sugar - In a medium bowl, use a fork or rubber spatula to stir together the softened butter and sugars until combined (I like to ‘smoosh’ the mixture against the side of the bowl to really cream things together). Mix in the egg yolk and vanilla until well combined.
- Add Dry Ingredients - Stir in flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Add Mix-Ins - Then fold in the white chocolate chips and raspberries. It’s okay if the raspberries break up a bit, but you don’t want them completely smashed.
- Chill Dough and Preheat Oven - Pop the dough into the fridge to chill for about 20 minutes while the oven preheats. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Scoop Dough - Scoop the dough into two balls and place on a baking sheet. I like to press a few extra white chips and raspberry pieces in the tops for extra pretty cookies.
- Bake Cookies - Bake for 15-19 minutes (mine typically take 16-17 minutes)- when the edges are firm and set and the centers are just set, but there are no wet/gooey pockets on top. Due to the moisture in the raspberries, these take a few minutes longer to bake than our typical SS cookies, so they will be a darker golden brown.
- Enjoy - Allow the Cookes to cool on the baking sheet for about 10 minutes so they will finish cooking on the sheet and set up the final amount. Enjoy!
Notes
Spoon and Level Method - When measuring flour, make sure to use the 'spoon and level' method. This is where you spoon the flour into the measuring cup and then level off the top. Instead of dipping the measuring cup directly into the flour bin which can lead to over measuring.
Leftovers can be stored at room temperature, in an airtight container, for up to 1 week.
