Servings: 20 biscuits
Ingredients
- 250 g unsalted butter (room temp)
- 150 g icing sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 egg yolks
- 350 g plain flour
- 100-200 g jam
Instructions
- Beat the butter and sugar together until combined
- Add in the vanilla extract, plain flour and egg yolks and mix again
- Shape into a ball and wrap up the dough and refrigerate for at least one hour
- Once the dough is chilled, preheat the oven to 160ºc fan and line two-four large baking trays with parchment paper
- Roll out the dough to about 1/2cm in thickness and then cut out the circles for the biscuits. I use a 6-8cm cutter.
- You’ll need to cut a heart out of the centre of half of the biscuits you create to make the sandwiches
- Keep using up and re-rolling the dough until it has all been used
- Transfer to the baking trays and then bake for 10 minutes
- Leave the biscuits to cool on the baking tray
- Once cooled, on the solid biscuits, spoon a larger teaspoon of jam into the centre and help it spread out, but not right to the edge.
- Press the other biscuit on so that they are aligned - dust with some optional icing sugar
Notes
- You can use whatever flavour jam you like, strawberry or raspberry is my personal favourite though and is what you can see pictured.
- You can use a chocolate spread, lemon curd, anything you fancy
- I made my centres into little hearts for Valentines, but you can make flower shapes, circles, squares, whatever you fancy!
- These will last at room temp for 1+ weeks
- These will freeze for 3+ months
- I use these round biscuit cutters
- I use these heart cutters
