I love no-fail sugar cookies (NFSC); they taste great and are easy to work with. The original recipe is one of my staples, and when I came across the strawberry NFSC recipe posted by Lovelyladylibra, I was inspired to bake a batch. I made a raspberry version following Lovelyladylibra’s recipe with a few modifications, then topped them with Toba Garrett’s glace for a pretty, tasty and simple cookie treat. I just love how pink these are!

Beat butter and sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer until light and fluffy.
Add egg and combine well.
Add pureed raspberry, extract and food coloring. Mix until combined.
Incorporate ⅓ of the dry mixture at a time, scraping down the sides of the bowl between additions.
