I think these cookies are one of my favorite ones.

I really love the buttery flavour, and they are so so soft.

Directions

Let’s have some fun baking these cookies by cutting heart shapes, or whatever you want:

1. I usually make the dough in a food processor. Place all the ingredients in it, then pulse until a dough has formed.
2. Chill the dough, the cookies will bake better if the dough is chilled. I usually let the dough in the fridge overnight in an airtight container.
3. Roll a handful of the dough out on a prepared surface and cut out shapes with the heart-shaped cookie cutter.
4. Use a mini cookie cutter to cut the center hole into half of the cookies.
5. Bake at 180 C degrees for 10 minutes depending on the size of the cookie.  Do not over-bake!
6. Once cooled, spread jam over the bottom of each whole cookie. Dust icing sugar over cutout cookies. Place on the cookie with jam filling, sugar side up.

They are the BEST!
