This is a Barefoot Contessa recipe. I just love her recipes. Although it was the first time that I have made linzer cookies, I found the directions easy to follow and the cookie to taste wonderful and light! Thanks Ina!

Time 55m

Yield 36 Cookies, 36 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

3/4 lb unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
3 1/2 cups flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup good raspberry preserves
confectioners' sugar, for dusting

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, mix together the butter and sugar until they are just combined. Add the vanilla. In a medium bowl, sift together the flour and salt, then add them to the butter-and-sugar mixture. Mix on low speed until the dough starts to come together. Dump onto a surface dusted with flour and shape into a flat disk. Wrap in plastic and chill for 30 minutes.
  • Roll the dough 1/4-inch thick and cut 2 3/4-inch rounds with a plain or fluted cutter. With 1/2 of the rounds, cut a hole from the middle of each round with a heart or spade shaped cutter. Place all the cookies on an ungreased baking sheet and chill for 15 minutes.
  • Bake the cookies for 20 to 25 minutes, until the edges begin to brown. Allow to cool to room temperature. Spread raspberry preserves on the flat side of each solid cookie. Dust the top of the cut-out cookies with confectioners' sugar and press the flat sides together, with the raspberry preserves in the middle and the confectioners' sugar on the top.

These cookies were amazing! The dough was easy to work with and the raspberry jam filling was the perfect balance of sweet and tart. I will definitely be making these again.

These cookies were a bit dry, but they were still tasty. I would recommend adding more butter to the dough next time.

These cookies were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I would recommend using less sugar in the dough next time.
