Ingredients
for the easy raspberry jam
- 500 g fresh raspberries washed
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
for the cookies
- 125 g butter 1 stick, softened
- 1/2 cup caster sugar
- 1 egg beaten
- 2 cups flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
for the vanilla buttercream
- 100 g butter softened
- 300 g icing sugar sifted
- 1 tablespoon cream
- 1 vanilla pod scraped
Instructions
- To make the raspberry jam, combine all the ingredients in a saucepan over medium heat then allow to come to a boil and cook for 10 minutes. To test if the jam is ready, spoon some of the jam onto a plate, allow to cool slightly and drag your finger through the mixture. If the liquid doesn't bleed into the line again, the jam is ready.
- Transfer the jam to a sterilized jar and allow to cool completely.
- To make the cookies, pre-heat the oven to 180°c and line two baking trays with baking paper.
- Beat the butter and sugar together in a bowl until light and creamy then beat in the egg. Sift together the flour and baking powder and fold into the butter mixture. Mix until the dough comes together in a ball then bring together with your hands, making sure the dough has been mixed through.
- Form balls just smaller than the size of golf balls and place them on the baking trays. Flatten with a fork then place in the oven and allow to bake for 10-15 minutes or until the cookies are golden brown and cooked through.
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely.
- While the cookies cool, whip together the butter and sugar for the butter cream until light and fluffy. Add the cream and vanilla seeds and mix through.
- Sandwich the cookies with a bit of the raspberry jam and the vanilla butter cream.
- Place in the fridge to set for 10-20 minutes before serving.
