Time 25m

Yield 3 dozen cookies, 36 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/4 cups butter, softened
1 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
2 cups ground almonds
1 tablespoon baking cocoa

Steps:

  • In a mixing bowl, cream the butter, sugar and salt. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add the almonds, cocoa, cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves; mix well. Add flour; mix well. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour or until easy to handle.

I had a hard time finding the right jam filling for these cookies. I finally used a raspberry jam and it was delicious.

These cookies are a bit too sweet for my taste, but they're still very good. I think they would be perfect with a less sweet jam filling.

I'm not a big fan of Linzer cookies, but these ones are pretty good. They're not too sweet and the jam filling is tart and flavorful.

These cookies are a bit too dry for my taste. I think they would be better with a more moist dough.

I've tried many Linzer cookie recipes, but this one is by far the best. The cookies are light and airy, and the jam filling is perfectly balanced.
