Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • ½ cup raspberry jam

How to Make Creamy Vanilla and Raspberry Sandwich Cookies

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  4. Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture, mixing until well combined.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.
  6. Using a tablespoon, scoop the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Flatten each ball slightly with the back of a spoon.
  7. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden. Remove from the oven and allow to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. While the cookies are cooling, prepare the creamy filling by whipping the heavy cream in a medium bowl until soft peaks form. Gradually add the powdered sugar, continuing to whip until stiff peaks form.
  9. Once the cookies are cool, spread a generous teaspoon of raspberry jam on the bottom of one cookie, then pipe or spread the whipped cream filling on top. Sandwich with another cookie, pressing gently to adhere.
  10. Repeat with the remaining cookies and filling. Serve immediately or refrigerate for later.

Tips for the Best Results

  • Ensure your butter is softened to room temperature for easy creaming.
  • Don’t overmix the cookie dough; mix until just combined for tender cookies.
  • Experiment with different flavors of jam or even fresh fruit for a twist.

Easy Variations

  • Substitute lemon curd for raspberry jam for a citrusy kick.
  • Add a teaspoon of almond extract to the filling for an extra flavor dimension.
  • Use chocolate cookies instead of vanilla for a rich chocolate-raspberry combo.

What to Serve With It

  • A scoop of vanilla ice cream for an indulgent dessert.
  • A cup of freshly brewed coffee or tea for a delightful pairing.
  • Fresh berries on the side to enhance the fruity flavors.

Storage and Reheating

Store any leftover cookies in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Allow them to come to room temperature before serving for the best texture. These cookies are best enjoyed fresh, but they can also be frozen for up to a month. Just be sure to separate layers with parchment paper to keep them from sticking together.
