Ingredients

Scale

For the Cookies:

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

For the Filling:

  • 1/2 cup raspberry jam (or more, as needed)

Instructions

  • Prepare the Cookie Dough:
    • In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy.
    • Add the vanilla extract and mix until combined.
    • Gradually add the flour and salt, mixing until the dough comes together.
    • Divide the dough into two portions, wrap each in plastic wrap, and chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  • Roll and Cut the Cookies:
    • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
    • On a lightly floured surface, roll out one portion of dough to about 1/4-inch thickness.
    • Use a cookie cutter of your choice to cut out shapes and transfer them to the prepared baking sheets.
    • Repeat with the second portion of dough.
  • Bake the Cookies:
    • Bake the cookies for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are just lightly golden.
    • Remove from the oven and allow to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Assemble the Cookies:
    • Once the cookies are fully cooled, spread about 1 teaspoon of raspberry jam onto the flat side of one cookie.
    • Top with another cookie, pressing gently to sandwich them together. Repeat with the remaining cookies and jam.

Notes

  • You can use any jam flavor of your choice, but raspberry gives a great balance of sweetness and tartness.
  • If the dough is too sticky, chill it a little longer before rolling out.
