Almond Butter Cookies Sandwiched With Jam Recipes

ALMOND BUTTER SANDWICH COOKIES WITH RHUBARB JAM

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• In a medium bowl, mix together the almond butter, egg and salt with a stiff rubber spatula. Mix in the sugar. Roll the dough into 1 tablespoon-sized balls and place about an inch apart on the prepared baking sheet. Flatten with a fork (these barely spread in the oven) and sprinkle with sprinkles, if using. Bake until set and no longer shiny, about 12 minutes. Let cool completely on the pan.
• Sandwich the cookies with a heaping 1/2 teaspoon of jam in the center, eat one now, and then let the rest sit for a few hours uncovered at room temperature to allow the jam firm up. Enjoy!

ALMOND BUTTER COOKIES (SANDWICHED WITH JAM)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Combine ground almonds and sugar. Blend in butter. Add dry ingredients. Add water and blend well. Shape into a flattened ball. Wrap in parchment and chill at least 1/2 hour. Roll out onto lightly floured board until approximately 1/4-inch thick. Cut into desired shapes, and place on parchment covered baking sheet about 2 inches apart. Bake until golden brown. Cool.

ALMOND-SHORTBREAD SANDWICH COOKIES

Steps:

• Cookies: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spread almonds in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until noticeably darkened and fragrant, 10 to 15 minutes. Transfer sheet to a wire rack; let cool completely.
• Pulse almonds in a food processor until finely ground. Measure 1 1/2 cups almonds into a medium bowl; set remainder aside. Add flour and salt to bowl; whisk to combine.
• In a mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat butter with confectioners' sugar until smooth and well combined. Beat in egg yolks and vanilla. Gradually add almond-flour mixture, beating until dough just comes together (do not overmix). Turn dough out onto a work surface and divide in half. Shape each half into a 12-inch log (about 1 3/4 inches in diameter); wrap each log in plastic. Refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour.
• Measure 1/2 cup reserved almonds onto a sheet of parchment; roll each log in nuts to coat. Cut logs into 1/4-inch-thick slices, discarding ends. Transfer slices to parchment-lined baking sheets, spacing about 1 inch apart. Bake, rotating sheets halfway through, until edges are slightly browned, 18 to 20 minutes. Transfer sheets to wire racks; let cool completely.
• Filling: Pulse remaining 3 cups reserved almonds and salt in a food processor on low speed, scraping down sides frequently. Mixture will look dry but continue pulsing until it reaches a smooth, spreadable consistency, 15 to 20 minutes.
• In the bowl of a mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together 1 cup almond butter (reserve remaining 1/2 cup for another use), confectioners' sugar, and butter until smooth, scraping down sides of bowl as needed. Transfer to a pastry bag fitted with a 1/2-inch round tip.
• Pipe a small amount of filling onto bottoms of half the cookies, then sandwich with remaining cookies. Filled cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature up to 1 week.
