These elegant treats are ideal for holidays, tea parties, or whenever you want to impress with an indulgent homemade dessert. With just 20 minutes of prep time and pantry-friendly ingredients, this recipe is as easy as it is decadent—perfect for fans of fruit-filled cookies and sweet sandwich creations.
Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the vanilla extract and mix until combined.
Sift together the all-purpose flour and cornstarch in a separate bowl, then gradually add it to the butter mixture. Mix until a soft dough forms.
Divide the dough into two portions. Roll out each portion on a lightly floured surface to about 5mm (1/4 inch) thick. Use a round cookie cutter (about 5cm/2 inches in diameter) to cut out the cookies.
Place the cookies on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2cm (1 inch) apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are just lightly golden. Allow the cookies to cool completely on a wire rack.
To make the filling, beat the softened butter and powdered sugar together in a bowl until smooth. Add the heavy cream and continue to beat until light and fluffy.
Spread about 1 teaspoon of raspberry jam on the bottom side of one cookie.
On another cookie, spread or pipe about 1 teaspoon of the prepared cream filling. Sandwich the two cookies together.
Repeat with the remaining cookies. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
