Yes! Freeze-dried raspberries are a good substitution for fresh raspberries. Here are a few pros and cons: Fresh Raspberries: * Pro: The best, tart FRESH flavor. * Con: A little tough roll into the dough--they make break a little. Freeze Dried Raspberries: * Pro: Easy to stir into the cookie dough mixture. You don't have to worry about them bleeding into the cookies. * Con: You don't get that fresh, tart taste as you do with fresh berries.
