These were tasty, but the texture was a little gummy and (as others have noted) the cookies can turn green during the baking, which isn't fun to explain to people. I even added a little red food coloring to counteract it, but to no avail. If you're up for experimenting, I would find a way to add the jam post-baking, or perhaps (if it exists) using some sort of raspberry flavoring or extract instead.

I think these may be my new favorite! Very easy to make. Loved them so much, I made an extra batch last night. I don't see the big blue color problem that I've seen mentioned. Yes, a little but it doesn't change the fact that these are delicious. My husband didn't even want me to make them when I read the recipe and then changed his mind when he tasted them. Another reason I made more. Thanks for a new addition to my Christmas cookies!!!

i think this is a good recipe.. my boyfriend loves it :) but i think the key point in making the cookies is that do NOT mix the jam too well into the dough--- i added the jam at last and just mix it a bit..didnt blend it comepletly with the dough. that prevent the cookies from becoming greenish blue!!

I made these cookies in previous years and really impressed my Mother-in-Law - she loved them. I came back to regain the recipe in order to make them again. I was careful not to overmix and was quite happy with the results. A very tasty and special treat.

I left out the nuts, probably should have used them. The 8-10 minutes in oven was not enough, had to put them back in. They turned out looking greenish and didn't taste like raspberry very much. I would not make these again.

These cookies were just OK. I did not mind the strange color but they were quite sticky and a bit too sweet. I do not think I would make them again. Make sure you use wax paper to layer if you do decide to make them.

I increased sugar to 1/3 cup PLUS 2 T. I also waited and added the jam very last. I only swirled it in lightly so that cookies would not be the blueish-green mentioned previously. Did not use the macadamia nuts at all. I used a 3 T. cookie scoop and got 1 dozen LARGE cookies. They were extra yummy. I was trying to copy the cookies at Disneyland bakeries...pretty close.

These were good - I didn't add any nuts, but they turned out great anyway. They were a bit green, but we think that was cool. I love the hint of rasberry.

If you are not a big fan of white chocolate, don't make these cookies. The taste of the rasberry was nice touch but mostly I thought these cookies weren't very good. They even looked blue when baked!

The dough looked green, and I also didn't bake them; but I was glad I did. They are so tasty. They baked up light brown, and you could taste the raspberry. They were a hit, and I will definitely put this recipe with my favorite cookies. Mine were not flat. I used only about a half teaspoon per cookie .. also like a ball. Thanks.

I prefer my regular recipe (w/o raspberry), but these were popular. They were a little flat and stickier than I would have liked, they were also bluer than pink. However, I was asked for the recipe.
