Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Cookie Recipes

Yield Makes about 18

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 1/4 cups unbleached all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon plus a pinch of kosher salt
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature
6 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
1 cup sugar
1 tablespoon grated lemon zest
2 large eggs
3/4 cup raspberry preserves

Steps:

  • Whisk together flour, baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream together butter and cream cheese on medium speed until well combined, about 1 minute. Add sugar and lemon zest and continue to beat until fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add 1 egg and beat until combined. Beat in flour mixture on low speed until combined. Divide dough in half. Shape each half into a square, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate until firm, 1 to 2 hours.
  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Remove one-half of dough from the refrigerator. On a lightly floured sheet of parchment, roll out dough into a square about 1/8 inch thick. Cut out squares using a 3 1/2-inch square cutter, then carefully transfer to prepared baking sheets, spaced about 1 1/2 inches apart. If dough becomes too soft, transfer parchment with dough to a baking sheet and refrigerate until firm.
  • Place 1 teaspoon preserves in the center of each square. Using a small paring knife, cut 1 1/4-inch slits diagonally from each corner toward the filling. Fold every other tip over to cover filling, forming a pinwheel. Press lightly to seal. If dough becomes soft, refrigerate until firm.
  • Lightly beat remaining egg with remaining pinch of salt. Using a pastry brush, lightly brush tops of cookies with egg wash. Bake until edges are golden and cookies are slightly puffed, 15 to 20 minutes. Let cool on sheets 5 minutes, then transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool completely. Repeat with remaining dough.

½ cup white sugar, or more to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C), and line a 9x13 inch baking pan with parchment paper.
