Ingredients

Servings
  • 12 tablespoons unsalted butter softened
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cups powdered sugar plus more for sprinkling
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 3/4 cup raspberry jam

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set them aside.
  3. In a large bowl with a hand mixer, or in the bowl of a stand mixer, cream the butter until fluffy.
  4. Add the egg and vanilla extract and mix until combined. 
  5. In a medium-sized mixing bowl whisk together all-purpose flour, powdered sugar, baking powder, and kosher salt.
  6. Slowly incorporate the flour mixture into the dough and mix until just combined.
  7. Using your hand knead the dough into a ball.
  8. Sprinkle flour over your counter or workspace and add the dough to the floured surface and sprinkle the top of the dough with a dusting of flour.
  9. Using a floured rolling pin, roll the dough until it is 1/4 inch thick.
  10. Using a heart-shaped or round cookie cutter, cut out an even number of cookies. I got about 44 cookies.
  11. Take half of your cut-out cookies and cut out the center with a smaller cookie cutter.
  12. Place cookies on baking trays and bake for 15 - 18 minutes, or until the edges are a bit golden. 
  13. Once fully cooked remove from the oven and let cool.
  14. Once they are cool, take the full cookies, turn them over, and with a spatula or spoon, spread 1 teaspoon jam on top of a cookie.
  15. Take the cookie with the hole in the middle and sift some powdered sugar over them.
  16. Take that top piece and place them over the jam cookies like a cookie sandwich. 
  17. Continue until completed and enjoy.
