Ingredients
Instructions
-
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
-
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture, and beat until well combined.
-
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
-
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a smooth cookie dough forms.
-
Divide the cookie dough in half. Shape each portion into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up the dough.
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
Roll out one disk of cookie dough on a lightly floured surface to about 1/4-inch thickness.
-
Using a cookie cutter, cut out shapes from the dough and carefully transfer them to the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each cookie.
-
Spoon a small amount of raspberry jam into the center of each cookie.
-
Roll out the second disk of cookie dough and cut out shapes in the same way as before.
-
Gently press down each top dough piece over the raspberry jam on each cookie to create a swirl pattern.
-
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
-
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
