Preheat the oven to 350?F (175?C).

In a mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.

Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.

Fold in the lemon zest and mashed raspberries gently.

Drop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden.

Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
