Linzer Cookies

Directions

1. 1
   Combine flour, powdered sugar, ground almonds, and salt in a bowl. Add the cold butter cubes and process into a crumbly mixture.
2. 2
   Add the egg yolk and vanilla extract. Quickly knead into a smooth dough. Shape the dough into a flat disk, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
3. 3
   Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) top/bottom heat (160°C fan). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
4. 4
   Roll out the dough on a floured surface to about 3-4 mm thick. Cut out circles (approx. 5 cm in diameter) or other shapes (e.g., hearts, flowers). Use a small cutter to create a hole in the center of half the shapes.

Nothing sticks. Everything releases.

Your cake comes out clean, every single time.

1. 5
   Place the cookies on the prepared baking sheets and bake for 10-12 minutes. They should remain light in color and only turn slightly golden at the edges. Keep an eye on them after 9 minutes. The cookies will be soft when they come out of the oven but will firm up as they cool.
2. 6
   Spread a thin layer of jam on the bottom cookies (the ones without holes).
3. 7
   Dust the top cookies (the ones with holes) with powdered sugar before gently placing them on the jam-covered cookies. Optionally, lightly dust the sides of the cookies with powdered sugar as well.
