Preparation

Step 1

* Preheat oven to 350

* Line baking sheets with parchment paper

* In a small bowl, sift together flour and salt, set aside

* In a mixer bowl, cream butter, add cream cheese and beat until light and fluffy.

* Add sugar, beat until well incorporated.

* Add the egg and flavorings.


* Beat in flour until just combined


* Add chocolate, beat in.

* Add the frozen raspberries. (I kept them partially frozen so it would be easier. This increased the baking time a bit.)
