1 1/2 cups butter, room temperature
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 1/2 cups all purpose flour
3/4 cup raspberry or strawberry preserves
1/2 cup icing sugar
1. In a bowl, mix the butter and sugar on medium speed for 2 minutes. Add in the vanilla and salt and mix until combined.
2. Turn mixer to low and add in the flour, mixing until just combined.
3. Remove the dough, flatten it into a disk and wrap in cling wrap. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
4. Remove the dough from the refrigerator and let it sit for 10 minutes.
5. Using a rolling pin, roll the dough out to 1/4- inch thick. Cut out the dough using a round 2-inch round biscuit cutter or cookie cutter. In half of the rounds, cut out circle (or shape) in the centers. You can use a small cookie cutter, or even the back of a piping tip. Or you can take a look at our Linzer range to buy the shapes you want for your cookies.
6. Place the cookies on a prepared baking tray and place in the freezer.
7. Preheat the oven to 176°C. When the oven is preheated, remove the cookies from the freezer and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
8. Once cooled, spread about 1 teaspoon of preserves on the bottoms of the solid cookies. Gently press the cut out cookies on top of the preserves.
9. Dust with icing sugar and enjoy!
