Sandwich Cookies Recipe
Are you looking for a fun and festive cookie? This sandwich cookies recipe is what you need to make just that, the easy, simple way! These cookies use a simple, easy to make dough recipe and are filled with jam. Then they’re completely transformed from ordinary to festive through chocolate dipping.
These sandwich cookies actually have aname:Isler or Ischler cookies. In spite of the fancy name,Isler is just a chocolate covered, jam filled version of two linzer cookies. I drizzled some white chocolate too, just to add a bit more fanciness to the festive look. And I used strawberry jam because I think chocolate goes very well with strawberries.The jam filled center softened the cookies and made them tender and super delicious.
Sandwich Cookies Recipe
Ingredients:
- 2 1/2 sticks butter
- 5 oz powdered sugar
- 1 1/4 cup finely ground almonds
- 1 tablespoon rum extract
- Pinch of salt
- 10 oz cake flour
- 1/2 cup strawberry jam
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- white chocolate to drizzle
- Stand mixer with paddle
- 2″ round cookie cutter
- wax paper
- baking sheet
Directions:
- In the bowl of a stand mixer using the paddle attachment beat together butter and sugar.
- Slowly add in the walnuts, rum extract and salt.
- Gradually add in the flour.
- Cover and refrigerate the dough until well-chilled, at least 1 hour.
- Heat the oven to 350 F.
- Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with wax paper.
- Remove the dough from the refrigerator and break into 4. Use one-fourth of the dough and return the rest of the dough to the refrigerator so it stays chilled until rolling.
- Dust with flour and roll each portion of the dough to the thickness of choice (I think a thinner cookie will end up a little more crunchy so if you want a softer cookie, roll the dough about 1/8″ thick)
- Cut out rounds using a 2″ cookie cutter.
- Place the rounds on the baking sheet and bake just until the edges start to brown, about 10 minutes.
- Remove the cookies and cool on a rack.
- When completely cooled, spoon about 1 teaspoon strawberry jam in the center of half of one cookie and top with a second. Repeat with all of the cookies.
- Keep in the fridge for 30 minutes.
- Melt the chocolate chips in the microwave using a microwave-safe bowl; stir the chips every 15 seconds until melted. You can also melt the chocolate in a bain marie.
- Dip the top of the sandwiches into chocolate and gently shake the excess. Place on a plate chocolate side up.
- Melt the white chocolate and drizzle over sandwiches using a fork.
- Store the cookies in a container and place in a cool place. They taste best the next day.
