Description
Soft, buttery cookies filled with bright raspberry filling and finished with a drizzle of white chocolate—these Raspberry Sandwich Cookies are comforting, elegant, and just the right amount of sweet. Perfect for holidays, brunches, or everyday indulgence.
Ingredients
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
½ cup unsalted butter, softened
⅓ cup granulated sugar
1 large egg yolk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
1 cup fresh or frozen raspberries
2 tablespoons powdered sugar (for filling)
½ cup white chocolate, melted (optional drizzle)
Instructions
1. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine raspberries and powdered sugar. Stir and cook until berries break down and mixture thickens, about 10 minutes. Strain if desired and let cool.
2. In a large bowl, cream together butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
3. Add egg yolk and vanilla extract to the butter mixture. Mix until fully combined.
4. In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add to the wet ingredients and mix until a dough forms.
5. Cover and chill the dough in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
6. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
7. Roll dough into small balls and slightly flatten them on the sheet.
8. Bake for 10–12 minutes until edges are just golden. Cool completely.
9. Spread a small amount of raspberry filling on the flat side of one cookie, then top with another to create a sandwich.
10. Drizzle with melted white chocolate and allow to set before serving or storing.
Notes
Let the cookies cool completely before assembling to prevent melting the filling.
Don’t overfill the cookies—a teaspoon of filling per sandwich is plenty.
Use a piping bag for neat, even filling and to avoid messy edges.
