Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set this mixture aside.
In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to cream the softened butter and sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Beat in the eggs, one at a time, ensuring each egg is fully incorporated before adding the next. Then mix in the vanilla extract.
Add the sour cream to the wet ingredients and mix until smooth and creamy.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring just until combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in the raisins with a spatula or spoon until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the tops look slightly dry. The cookies should remain pale for a soft texture.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy your soft and tangy Sour Cream Cookies with Raisins!
