  2. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

For perfect cookies, ensure butter and cream cheese are at room temperature. If fresh raspberries aren't available, consider using blueberries or diced strawberries. Avoid overmixing the dough after adding flour to maintain a soft texture.
