Combine both almond and all-purpose flour along with salt and whisk together.In a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, beat together the butter and sugar until fluffy and plate yellow in color (approx. 4 mins). Then combine the egg and vanilla extract and on slow speed slowly pour in the flour mixture until just incorporated. Do not over mix.Place the dough on a well-floured surface and create a disk shape and cover all sides with plastic wrap. Place in the fridge for 15 minutes. Place parchment paper on a baking sheet.After 15 minutes, roll out the dough on a well floured surface about ¼ inch in thickness. With a round 1 inch cookie cutter, cut out as many rounds as possible and place them on a baking sheet. Cut out the center with a smaller cookie cutter shape of your choice for the remaining half then place into the freezer for 15 minutes. Place into the oven for only 10 minutes and place on a cooling rack to cool completely. Once cooled, place the cookies with the cut center on a plate and dust with powdered sugar and set aside. Spread some jam and hazelnut spread on the round cookies and carefully sandwich them with the top cookies.Similar RecipesCHERRY ALMOND BISCOTTIPERSIAN TEA COOKIESBLUEBERRY MUFFINS WITH BROWN SUGAR CRUMBLEDid you make this recipe?Tag @whisknwhip on instagram and hashtag it #recipesbyyas DessertsYasmine WahabAugust 14, 2020 Facebook0 Pinterest0 0 Likes
