Time 2h

Yield 32

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
¾ cup white sugar
½ cup butter at room temperature
¼ cup egg substitute
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ cup seedless raspberry jam
1 tablespoon confectioners' sugar, or as needed

Steps:

  • Mix flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon together in a bowl using a whisk.
  • Beat white sugar and butter together with an electric mixer on high in a bowl until light and fluffy; add egg substitute and vanilla extract. Beat until well blended.
  • Gradually beat flour mixture into sugar-butter mixture until dough is soft. Divide dough into 2 equal balls and wrap each portion in plastic wrap. Chill dough in refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Roll 1 dough ball into a 1/8-inch thick rectangle on a lightly floured surface; cut into 32 cookies using a square, star, or circular cookie cutter. Repeat with the second dough ball. Cut out the center of 32 cookies using a 1-inch square cookie cutter. Arrange all 64 cookies on the prepared baking sheets about 1 inch apart.
  • Bake cookies in the preheated oven until edges are lightly browned, about 10 minutes. Cool on pans for 5 minutes before transferring cookies to wire racks to cool completely.
  • Spread about 1/2 teaspoon raspberry jam into the center of each whole cookie. Sprinkle the cut-out cookies with confectioners' sugar; place 1 cut-out cookie atop each raspberry jam-topped cookie.

Raspberry Poppyseed Linzer Cookies Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: raspberry, sugar, lemon juice, all-purpose flour, almond flour, unsalted butter, sugar, kosher salt, lemon zest, McCormick® vanilla extract, McCormick® poppy seeds, large egg

Provided by Alix Traeger

Categories     Desserts

Yield 14 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup raspberry
½ cup sugar
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 cup all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1 cup almond flour
8 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus 2 tablespoons, softened
½ cup sugar
1 pinch of kosher salt
½ teaspoon lemon zest
1 teaspoon McCormick® vanilla extract
3 tablespoons McCormick® poppy seeds, optional
1 large egg

Steps:

  • Make the raspberry jam: In a medium pot over medium heat, combine the raspberries, sugar, and lemon juice. Cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thickened. Remove from the heat and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before assembling the cookies.
  • Make the cookies: In a medium bowl, mix together the all-purpose flour and almond flour. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, cream together the butter, sugar, salt, lemon zest, and vanilla with an electric hand mixer until fluffy, about 3 minutes.
  • Add the poppy seeds and beat for 1 minute to distribute evenly.
  • Add the egg and beat for 1-2 minutes, until well incorporated.
  • Pour in the flour mixture and fold with a spatula, just until no streaks of flour remain. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour or until firm.
  • Preheat the oven to 350˚F (180˚C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Unwrap the dough on a floured surface and dust the top of the dough with more flour. Roll out the dough to ¼-inch (½ cm) thickness.
  • Using a 2½-inch (6 ⅓ cm) round cookie cutter with ridged edges, cut out cookies, chilling and re-rolling the dough as needed to cut out more cookies. You should have about 38 total.
  • Use a ½-inch (1 ¼ cm) cutter to cut out the centers of half of the cookies. Transfer cookies to the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake the cookies for 12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown. Let cool completely.
  • To assemble, spread 1 teaspoon of jam onto the whole cookies. Top with the cut-out cookies.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Use fresh raspberries. Frozen raspberries can be used, but fresh raspberries will give your cookies a more intense flavor.
  • Don't overwork the dough. Overworking the dough will make your cookies tough. Mix the dough just until it comes together.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the dough to firm up and make it easier to work with.
  • Use a sharp knife to cut out the cookie shapes. A sharp knife will give you clean, precise cuts.
  • Bake the cookies until the edges are just starting to brown. Overbaking the cookies will make them dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before filling them. This will help to prevent the filling from seeping out.
  • If you don't have a pastry bag, you can use a ziplock bag to fill the cookies. Just cut a small hole in the corner of the bag and squeeze the filling into the cookies.

Conclusion:

Raspberry poppyseed linzer cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat. They're perfect for any occasion, from holiday parties to casual get-togethers. With their bright red raspberries and sweet poppyseed filling, these cookies are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
