Description

Raspberry-Filled Almond Snow Cookies are a delightful, soft almond-flavored treat, filled with tangy raspberry jam and dusted with powdered sugar. These cookies offer a perfect balance of sweet and tart, making them an irresistible dessert for any occasion.

Ingredients

Scale

Cookie Dough

  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 large egg (room temperature)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Filling

  • 1/4 cup raspberry jam
  • Additional powdered sugar for dusting

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
  2. Cream Butter and Sugar: In a mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and powdered sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy, which helps to create a tender texture in the cookies.
  3. Add Egg and Vanilla: Beat in the large egg and vanilla extract thoroughly to combine the flavors and bind the dough.
  4. Incorporate Almond Flour: Gradually add the almond flour to the mixture, stirring continuously until the dough is smooth and consistent.
  5. Shape Dough: Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll each into a ball. Use your thumb to create a small well or indentation in the center of each ball for the filling.
  6. Fill Cookies: Spoon a small amount of raspberry jam into each well carefully, then pinch the edges of the dough to seal the jam inside.
  7. Bake: Place the prepared cookies on the parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes or until the cookies are golden around the edges.
  8. Cool and Dust: Allow the cookies to cool completely on a wire rack. Once cooled, dust generously with powdered sugar to give the cookies their signature snowy appearance.

Notes

  • Ensure the butter is softened to room temperature for easier creaming and better dough consistency.
  • Do not overfill the jam wells to prevent leaking during baking.
  • You can substitute raspberry jam with any other fruit jam of your choice for variation.
  • Store cookies in an airtight container to maintain freshness for up to 3 days.
  • For a nuttier flavor, lightly toast the almond flour before using.
