I started baking these Christmas classics when I was a sophomore in high school...and I and still making them now for my grown children and grankids. The combination of jam, buttery shortbread, chocolate and sprinkles adds up to a fancy and festive treat.

I'm not a big fan of raspberry, but these cookies were surprisingly good. The almond flavor really comes through and the cookies are nice and chewy.

The cookies were a little dry, but the raspberry jam filling helped to make up for it. Overall, they were still pretty good.

These cookies were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I'll try them again with less sugar next time.

These cookies were delicious! The raspberry jam filling was tart and sweet, and the cookie itself was buttery and crumbly. I will definitely be making these again.

I've made these cookies several times now and they always turn out great. They're a little time-consuming to make, but they're definitely worth the effort.
