Ingredients:

  • 200g of all-purpose flour
  • 100g of unsalted butter
  • 100g of powdered sugar
  • 1 large egg yolk
  • 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
  • 50g of ground almonds
  • 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon
  • 100g of raspberry jam
  • a pinch of salt

Kitchen Tools Needed:

  • mixing bowl
  • baking sheet
  • rolling pin
  • cookie cutter
  • spatula

Instructions:

  • Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy.
  • Add the egg yolk, vanilla extract, and mix well.
  • In a separate bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, ground almonds, cinnamon, and salt. Gradually add this to the butter mixture, mixing until a dough forms.
  • Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for about 15 minutes until firm.
  • On a floured surface, roll out the dough to about 1/4 inch thickness. Use a cookie cutter to cut out shapes.
  • Use a smaller cookie cutter to cut out the centers of half of the cookies to create a window for the jam.
  • Place the cookies on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes until lightly golden.
  • Once cooled, spread raspberry jam on the whole cookies and place the cut-out cookies on top to create a sandwich.
