Ingredient Notes and Substitutions
- Butter – Use unsalted butter for this recipe, but if you only have salted butter, you can omit the salt from the recipe if desired.
- Flour – All purpose flour is recommended for this recipe.
- Seedless Raspberry Jam – Seedless raspberry jam is a preference thing but use whatever you prefer. Raspberry is just the flavor Costco uses but feel free to use whatever fruit preserves you like.
- Almond Extract – This is optional and doesn’t have to be used, however it really elevates the flavor when added. If you don’t have or don’t want to use almond extract, you could double the vanilla extract in the recipe.
- Kosher Salt – The flakiness of kosher salt is great for this recipe, but feel free to use whatever you have on hand.
How To Make Raspberry Crumble Cookies
- To make these copycat Costco Raspberry Crumble Cookies, start by preheating your oven to 350°. In a large bowl, add the butter, both sugars, vanilla extract and almond extract and beat this mixture together with a hand or stand mixer for about 1-2 minutes. You can mix the dough by hand, it just may be a little difficult. Add in the flour and continue to combine. This mixture will be crumbly, that is fine, you don’t want to over mix the dough. You’ll know it’s combined when you can squeeze some in your hand and it sticks together. To keep it simple, the mixture makes both the base/crust and the topping.
- Using a jumbo muffin tin, spray or grease the wells and sprinkle some flour to the bottoms and sides. Then, to each muffin well, scoop about ¼ of the mixture to the bottoms.
- Press the mixture into the bottom of the cups and a little bit up the sides to form a small bowl shape. You can use the bottom of a glass or a spice jar to do this. You want to press it in, but don’t over compact it or it will be hard.
- Add about a ½ to a 1 tablespoon of the raspberry preserves to the middle of each tartlet.
- After adding the raspberry jam, sprinkle a large teaspoon of the crumble mixture on top.
- Place these in the oven and allow them to bake anywhere from 18 to 22 minutes, or until the tops turn a golden brown color. Take them out of the oven and allow them to sit in their pans until they are completely cool. You may need to take a butter knife to the side to help you get them out.
Recipe Tips and Advice
Storage – You can store these raspberry crumble cookies at room temperature in an airtight container for about a week or store them in the freezer for up to 3 months. If you freeze them, seperate each tartlet with some wax paper and store in a freezer bag.
Equipment – You’ll need a jumbo size muffin tin, a hand or stand mixer, baking spray or baking grease and a mixing bowl. If you choose to use baking spray, just know that the baking sprays with flour in them tend to make these cookies brown faster. If you don’t have a jumbo muffin tin you can also use a regular one, just follow these steps instead:
- Prepare the tin as normal and the dough as normal.
- Use two tablespoons of dough mixture, instead of a ¼ cup, and press it into the bottom of the tins as normal.
- Spoon 2 teaspoons of jam into the center of the wells and evenly seperate the remaining dough to sprinkle on the top.
Don’t Let The Cookie Crumble
Make sure the raspberry cookies cool completely before taking them out of the tins or else they will crumble. You can even make them the night before and let them sit overnight to ensure they set properly.
Recipe FAQs
They are a pastry that resembles both a tartlet and a filled cookie! However, the biggest thing to remember is that they are delicious.
Yes, if you use non-dairy butter these could technically be considered vegan. When it comes to baking with different ingredients however I would always recommend testing before making a full batch.
Yes. However, depending on the consistency of the jam it may make your cookies turn out runny. So again, do a test batch if you want to try it out.

- 1 teaspoon almond extract
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350℉. Spray a jumbo muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray or grease and flour the wells. Set aside.
- To make the crust and topping, which is the same but used in two ways in this recipe, cream butter, sugars and extracts together for approximately 1- 2 minutes.
- Add in the flour and salt, and mix just until combined. The mixture should still be a little crumbly. Do not over mix or the dough may become tough.
- Scoop about ¼ cup of this mixture into each muffin well. Press into the bottom and up the sides a little, forming a well. Press into the pan, but do not over pack or the crust will be tough.

- Sprinkle each cookie with 1 heaping tablespoon of the remaining topping/crust mixture.
- Bake for 18-22 minutes or until lightly browned.
- Let cool completely and then remove from pans. You may need a knife to run around the edge to help in popping them out.

Meet Christi, Love From The Oven
I’m Christi I love sharing easy & delicious recipes that your family & friends will love. I’m a mom, baker, cookbook author and lover of sprinkles.
Just finished my second batch! These cookies taste soooo good! The first batch I made in regular muffin tins and found it quite time consuming making sure I had the indent and a nice edge. I thought these were also a little too thick. Today I put a good one and a half tablespoon in cupcake papers then placed them in a muffin tin. I pushed the batter down and never worried about the edges too much but made sure the middle was dented slightly. Added the jam and crumbs and baked them exactly 18 minutes at 350. They were very easy to remove once cooled and had a pretty crinkled edge! These cookies are definitely one of my favourite! Thanks for sharing!
How long do you bake them for if you use regular muffin size pan and mini muffin size pan?
I made these twice. Once in regular size muffin tins and then later made 1/2 the recipe again to try in mini muffin tins. Both were amazing. The regular sized ones were so delicious but so rich that I decided to try some in mini muffin pans. These were also delicious but small enough to trick you to eating more than one. 😬. Since I do in the comments recorded using two tablespoons of crumble and two teaspoons for jam for the regular sized muffin tins, I just eyeballed my ratio in the mini muffin tins. These are swoon worthy.
Made these tonight for a potluck Christmas Party and they were a huge hit! Someone actually asked me if I made them or bought them somewhere, they were so good! The almond extract definitely made a huge difference, perfection! Thanks for a great recipe!
My dough comes out very sticky not crumbly. What could I be doing wrong ? Made sure not to over mix but was still sticky.
Can you use reduced whole cranberry sauce instead of raspberry?
I’ve never tried. If you do, let us know how it goes!
Thank you for this down-sized suggestion. Can’t wait to try these.
If I use a regular muffin tin, how long do I bake them for??
Hi! These look amazing! If following the instructions for the regular size muffin pan, how long do you recommend baking them for? Thanks!
Can you do mini muffin tins. If so how long do you bake them? Thanks
I have not done a mini muffin tin for these. Here are the instructions from the post if you want to size down to a standard size muffin tin…
If you don’t have a jumbo muffin tin you can also use a regular one, just follow these steps instead:
Prepare the tin as normal and the dough as normal.
Use two tablespoons of dough mixture, instead of a ¼ cup, and press it into the bottom of the tins as normal.
Spoon 2 teaspoons of jam into the center of the wells and evenly seperate the remaining dough to sprinkle on the top.
