Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
 - In a large mixing bowl, cream together softened unsalted butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
 - Beat in the large eggs one at a time. Stir in lemon zest and vanilla extract, blending well.
 - In a separate bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this to the wet mixture until just combined.
 - Gently fold in raspberry preserves to the cookie dough, creating swirls without fully mixing.
 - Using a cookie scoop, drop dollops of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
 - Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes until the edges are lightly golden.
 - Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
 - Optional: Melt white chocolate chips and drizzle over cooled cookies for an extra touch of sweetness.
