Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 3/4 lb. Salted Butter, softened
  • 1 c. Granulated Sugar
  • 1 tsp. Vanilla Extract
  • 3 c. All-Purpose Flour; plus extra for rolling
  • 3/4 c. Seedless Raspberry Preserves
  • Confectioners Sugar, for dusting

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. 
  • Cream together the butter and sugar until well combined; then add the vanilla.
  • Next, add the flour and mix well; then place the dough onto a floured surface and shape into a flat disc. Chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  • Remove the dough and roll out to 1/4" thick; then cut out two 3/4" rounds. Cut out a hole from one of the circles (I use a juice glass and a shot glass to cut out the center).
  • Place all of the cookies on an ungreased baking sheet or on parchment paper. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the edges begin to brown.
  • Allow to cool slightly; then spread some preserves on the full round cookie and top with the cut out cookie.
  • Cool completely and dust with confectioners sugar.
