How to make it

  • Preheat oven to 350F. Sift flour into a large bowl and add the sugar, vanilla, lemon zest, egg yolks and butter. Mix with electric beaters until it comes together to form a dough. Flatten to a round disc and cover with plastic wrap and chill for 30 minutes.
  • Roll the dough out on a floured work surface to a 5mm (1/4inch) thick, then using a 6cm flour shaped cookie cutter, cut into discs.
  • Take half discs and cut holes out of the center of each. Place discs with space between them on a lightly greased baking trays and bake for 8-10 minutes until pale golden and slightly firm. Leave to cool for 5minutes and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Spread ½ tsp of jam on the whole discs and top with the other holed discs. Dust with icing sugar.

    Isn't that a wonderfully rich cookie? The raspberry jam is so good in it...your pictures capture it beautifully! Another post to add to my files - there just is not enough time to make them all, but I'm even happy just to look at your pictures. This is certainly no exception to that, Ahmed - you have 2 professions in one...baker AND food photographer!
