Ingredients
  

For the Dough:

  • 400 g all-purpose flour
  • 300 g marzipan grated
  • 100 g powdered sugar
  • 2 eggs size M
  • 1 pinch of salt

For Decoration:

  • Raspberry jam
  • Powdered sugar for dusting

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the Dough: In a large bowl, combine grated marzipan, powdered sugar, eggs, and salt. Mix until smooth and well combined. Slowly incorporate the flour, stirring until a smooth dough comes together. Once formed, wrap it in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  • Preheat the Oven: Heat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper.
  • Shape the Cookies: Roll the chilled dough on a floured surface to about 1/4 inch thick. Use a round or scalloped cookie cutter to cut out shapes. Using a smaller cutter or your thumb, create a small indentation in the center of half the cookies. These will be the tops.
  • Bake the Cookies: Arrange the cookie tops and bottoms on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the edges are just golden. Allow them to cool fully on a wire rack.
  • Assemble the Cookies: Spread a small amount of raspberry jam on the bottom cookies. Place the top cookies with the indentation over the jam, gently pressing to sandwich them together.
  • Decorate and Serve: Dust the finished cookies generously with powdered sugar for a festive touch. Enjoy with tea, coffee, or as a delightful standalone dessert.
