Linzer Cookies

[blackberryskunk]

Linzer cookies originates in Austria. They remind of sandwiches made of shortbread cookies and jam.
I used home-made tomato and cranberry jam and added a bit of cinnamon to it.

Ingredients:

• 280 g of all-purpose flour
• 50 g of sugar
• 25 g of almonds
• a pinch of salt
• 1 teaspoon of lemon spice
• 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
• 3 tablespoons of cold water
• 70 g of tomato jam with berries
• 1 teaspoon of icing sugar

Preparation:

1. Siift flour through a sieve in a bowl.
2. Crush almonds and add it to the flour.
   
   Add sugar, salt and lemon spice (or zest of half a lemon).
   
3. Add cold butter and mix it with the dry ingredients, using a fork.
   
4. Mix vanilla extract with 3 tablespoons of water (or plant based milk) and add it to the bowl.
5. Knead the dough with your hand, until the butter softened up enough to combine it in a sticky dough.
   Don't add too much flour to it, otherwise the dough will get dry.
6. Wrap it in a bag and place it in a fridge for at least one hour.
7. Roll it very thin (about 3-5 mm).
   
   Cut the cookies out and cut out the middle of half of the cookies with a smaller cookie cutter.
   
8. Place them on a baking tray and bake for 10-12 minutes at 180°C.
   
9. When the cookies are baked, place them on a cooling rack.
   
10. Heart up 70 g of jam. Place 1 teaspoon of jam on each whole cookie and cover it with the ones that are cut out in the middle.
    
    The jam will work as a glue. Let the jam cool down a bit to make them stick together.

I love jam filled shortbread like cookies and almond cookiesas well. My wife just bought a bunch of cookie cutters at a few Christmas Markets and I have been trying to convince her to do Jam filled ones like these. Maybe I'll show her your recipe and see if that works.
