Ingredients
  

Cookie Dough
  • 1 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/3 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon almond extract
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
Filling
  • 1/2 cup seedless raspberry jam

Equipment

  • Jumbo Muffin Tin

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spray a jumbo muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray or grease and flour the wells. Set aside.
  2. In a mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and almond extract for 1-2 minutes until well combined. Add in the flour and salt, mixing just until combined. The mixture should remain slightly crumbly—avoid overmixing to keep the dough tender.
  3. Scoop about 1/4 cup of the mixture into each muffin well. Press the dough evenly into the bottom and slightly up the sides, forming a well in the center. Press gently to compact but avoid overpacking, which could make the crust tough.
  4. Spoon 1/2 to 1 tablespoon of raspberry jam into the center of each cookie base.
  5. Sprinkle each cookie with a heaping tablespoon of the remaining crumble mixture. Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until the edges are lightly browned.
  6. Let the cookies cool completely in the pan. To remove them, you may need to gently run a knife around the edges. Enjoy!

Notes

These cookies are perfect for holiday gatherings or as a delightful treat with your afternoon tea. The almond extract adds a subtle aromatic flavor that pairs beautifully with the raspberry jam.
