Ingredients 

Cookie Dough

  • 1 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup pistachios finely ground
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Filling

  • ½ cup raspberry jam

Topping

  • ¼ cup powdered sugar for dusting

Instructions 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the vanilla extract and eggs, and mix until combined.
  3. Gradually add the flour, ground pistachios, and salt. Mix until the dough comes together.
  4. Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to about ¼ inch thickness. Use cookie cutters to cut out shapes. Cut out a smaller shape in the center of half of the cookies.
  5. Place the cookies on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Let cool completely.
  6. Spread raspberry jam on the whole cookies. Place the cookies with the cut-out centers on top, creating a sandwich. Dust with powdered sugar.
