These delightful Austrian jam cookies are a perfect treat for any occasion. With a buttery base and a sweet raspberry jam filling, they are sure to be a hit! Here’s how to make them.
Ingredients
- ½ cup butter, softened
- ½ cup white sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 egg yolk
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- ⅔ cup chopped almonds
- 1 cup raspberry jam
Directions
- In a medium bowl, cream together the softened butter and white sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add the vanilla extract and egg yolk, mixing until well combined.
- Gradually stir in the all-purpose flour until the dough comes together.
- Cover the dough with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2 hours to firm up.
- Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) and grease your cookie sheets or line them with parchment paper.
- Once the dough is chilled, measure out teaspoonfuls of dough and roll them into small balls.
- Dip each ball into the chopped almonds, ensuring they are well coated.
- Place the almond-coated balls on the prepared cookie sheet, spacing them about 1 inch apart.
- Using your finger or the back of a teaspoon, make an indentation in the center of each cookie.
- Fill the indentation with raspberry jam using a teaspoon or a pastry bag.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the cookies are golden brown.
- Once baked, remove the cookies from the pan and allow them to cool on a wire rack.
Austrian jam cookies are perfect for sharing with friends and family or enjoying with a cup of tea or coffee.
