Costco Raspberry Crumble Cookies COPYCAT

Our Copycat Raspberry Crumble Cookies recipe resembles both the taste and texture of the signature Kirkland Costco cookie, but this homemade version is baked in half the size, which means each serving contains fewer calories and costs a lot less!

This easy cookie recipe is a cross between baking eggless shortbread cookies and mini raspberry tarts, kept extra simple because the cookie dough mixture makes both the base and the crumble on top.

While you can certainly grab a package of these “grown-up Poptarts” in the bakery isle sold beside the oversized chocolate chip cookies and assorted 24-count Costco cookies, why go to the trouble when you can get the same golden buttery crust, fruit filling, and crumbly covering at a fraction of the time and cost? 

  • Quick and easy to make.
  • Uses only 5 simple ingredients.
  • Sweet, tart, crumbly, soft, and chewy, just like Costco’s cookies!
  • When you make your own cookies at home, you know exactly what’s going into them.
  • Versatile recipe lets you customize your cookies with your favorite fruit flavors.
  • Delicious afternoon snack for serving alongside a cup of coffee or tea, but can also be enjoyed for breakfast or dessert.

Raspberry Crumble Cookies Ingredients

Raspberry Crumble Cookies ingredients.

See the recipe card for full information on ingredients and quantities.

Substitutions and Additions

  • Make With A Different Mix: You can substitute the white cake mix with a yellow, butter pecan, or spice cake mix if desired. 
  • Fill With Another Flavor: While Costco bakes these as raspberry cookies, feel free to use any fruit-flavored jam or preserves you fancy. Strawberry, blueberry, mixed berry, and apricot will all taste delicious.
  • Tasty Toppings: Top your cookies with a dusting of powdered sugar or a drizzle of sugar cookie icing for an extra decadent dessert.

How to Make Raspberry Crumble Cookies

  1. Make The Crumble Mixture: Whisk together the cake mix and flour until combined. Add in the butter and almond extract and cream together just until a soft, crumbly mixture forms.
    Pro Tip: Do not overmix. You do not want this to form a dough, just an evenly crumbled mixture. 
  2. Create The Crust: Scoop of the mixture into each well of the muffin pan and press the into the bottom and just up the side of the well.
    Pro Tip: Do not overpress. 
  3. Fill With Fruit: Add the jam on top of each cookie crust. 
  4. Cover And Cook: Sprinkle the crumble mixture on top of the jam and bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 15-18 minutes or until golden brown. 
  5. Serve: Cool completely and serve. Enjoy!

Tips For Making Raspberry Crumble Cookies

  • Be sure that the mixture is not overmixed. You do not want to create a dough for this recipe, just a crumble that can be pressed together firmly.
  • Soften the butter, but do not melt it. Cutting the butter into pats will enable it to be more easily incorporated into the mixture, without having to overmix it. If a dough starts to form, stop mixing and use the mixture as is. 
  • Allow the cookies to cool completely before removing them from the pan. You can run a knife along the edge if needed. 

How to Store Raspberry Crumble Cookies

  • To Store: Raspberry Crumble Cookies can be stored in an airtight container with parchment paper between layers at room temperature for 3-5 days. They can also be stored in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
  • To Freeze: Raspberry Crumble Cookies can be frozen for 2-3 months if properly stored in a freezer safe container. Be sure to bring cookies to room temperature before enjoying.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can this recipe be made into larger cookies?

Yes, you can use this same recipe to make larger cookies like Costco! Instead of using a standard muffin pan, you can use a jumbo muffin pan to create larger cookies. Remember that it will yield fewer cookies, and the baking time will need to be modified slightly.

Is This Recipe Vegan?

Because this recipe calls for butter, it is not vegan as written. However, you can make it vegan by swapping the dairy-based butter for a plant-based alternative. Make sure to check the label on your cake mix to ensure it is dairy-free.
