Ingredients
Instructions
-
In a bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and ground almonds.
-
In a separate large bowl, cream together the softened unsalted butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
-
Add the egg yolks and vanilla extract to the butter mixture and mix well.
-
Gradually add the flour mixture to the butter mixture and mix until the dough comes together.
-
Divide the dough in half, shape each half into a disk, and wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
-
Roll out one disk of dough on a lightly floured surface to about 1/8 inch (3mm) thickness.
-
Use a round cookie cutter to cut out circles from the rolled dough and place them on the prepared baking sheets.
-
Use a smaller round cookie cutter to cut out the centers from half of the circles.
-
Bake the cookies for about 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
-
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
Spread raspberry jam on the whole cookies and dust the cookies with the cut-out centers with powdered sugar.
-
Place the cut-out cookies on top of the jam-covered cookies to create sandwich cookies.
-
Serve and enjoy!
