Valentine’s Linzer Biscuits
Ingredients
- 275g unsalted butter
- 130g caster sugar
- 250g sifted plain flour
- 250g ground almonds
- 100g raspberry jam
- 5 tablespoons icing sugar for decoration
Method
1.Cream the butter and sugar together until the mixture is light and fluffy. Beat in the flour a bit at a time, add the almonds and continue beating until the mixture becomes a slightly stiff dough
2.Shape the dough into a ball, wrap it in greaseproof paper or cling film and refrigerate it for about an hour
3.On a lightly floured surface roll half the dough to approx. 3mm thick. Cut as many heart shapes from the sheet as you can and arrange them on a baking tray
4.Repeat the rolling and cutting process with the other half of the dough but before placing the second batch on the baking tray cut out the centre of each heart with a smaller heart-shaped biscuit cutter
5.Bake in a preheated oven (170 C / Gas 3) for 10 – 15 minutes or until light brown. Cool on cake rack for 20 minutes
6.Spread the tops of the solid hearts with a thin coating of jam, lay a cut-out biscuit on top of each, pressing the two together so they make a sandwich. Spoon a dab of jam into the opening of each sandwich and sprinkle the tops with icing sugar before serving.
