Preparation Steps

• Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
• Combine flour and powdered sugar in a bowl. Cut in cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
• Stir in vanilla extract. Form dough into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap, and chill for at least 30 minutes.
• Roll out dough on a lightly floured surface to 1/8 inch thickness. Use cookie cutters to cut out cookies.
• Place half of the cookies onto baking sheets. Top with a teaspoon of raspberry jam and cover with remaining cookies.
• Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until edges are lightly golden.
• Let cool on baking sheets before serving.
