Ingredients
- 200 g butter (¾ cup) at room temperature
- 80 g powdered icing sugar (confectioner's sugar ⅔ cup) plus extra for dusting
- 1 egg yolk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 250 g plain flour (all purpose flour, 2 cups)
- jam to Fill
Instructions
- Cream the butter and icing sugar together with an electric mixer until light and fluffy.
- Add the egg yolk and vanilla and mix to combine well.
- Mix in the flour until it makes a soft dough. It will be soft, but shouldn’t be too sticky to manage. If it is, mix in another tablespoon of flour.
- Chill the dough, wrapped in clingfilm, in the fridge for at least 30 minutes.
- Heat the oven to 180C/350F. Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
- Roll half of the dough out (keep the other half in the fridge) on a lightly floured surface to about 1 cm thick.
- Cut out rounds with an 7cm or 8cm cookie cutter. For half of the rounds, cut another, smaller shape in the middle to form a window.Re-roll any trimmings and make an equal amount of plain and windowed biscuits.
- Place the biscuits on the baking tray and bake for 10 minutes. Allow the biscuits to cool on the tray.
- Sandwich a small dollop of jam between the plain and windowed biscuits and then dust with sieved powdered icing sugar.
Notes
- The dough will be very sticky before chilling. Just scrape it together as best you can and wrap.
- The dough is very soft, so lightly roll it, shifting it gently after each roll so it doesn’t adhere to the countertop too much.
- Use a flat spatula to gently lift the cutouts onto the baking tray.
- Don’t overbake the cookies; they should be very pale and only very slightly golden.
- Allow to cool completely before adding the jam of it will melt.
