Ingredients
For the Shortbread
- 1 cup Butter softened to room temperature, unsalted
- 3/4 cup Sugar also known as icing sugar, powdered
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
- 1 tbsp Corn Flour
- 2 cup All-Purpose Flour plus more for dusting
For the Filling
- 1/2 cup Chocolate melted, white
- 1/2 cup Strawberry Jam or your favorite conserve
Instructions
Prepare the Shortbread
- Cream together the softened butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and flour.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Form the dough into a disc, wrap in plastic wrap, and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
Roll, Cut, and Bake
- Preheat oven to 325°F (165°C).
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out the chilled dough to about 1/8 inch thickness.
- Use cookie cutters to cut out desired shapes. For sandwich cookies, use two sizes of the same cutter to create pairs, one with a hole in the center.
- Place cookies on baking sheets lined with parchment paper.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until edges are lightly golden.
- Let the cookies cool completely on a wire rack.
Assemble the Sandwich Cookies
- Melt the white chocolate using a double boiler or microwave in short intervals.
- Spread a thin layer of melted white chocolate onto the bottom cookies (without holes).
- Top with a small amount of strawberry jam.
- Place the cookies with the holes on top to create the sandwich.
- Let the chocolate set completely before serving.
Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for Perfect Sandwich Shortbread Cookies
- For best results, use high-quality butter. The flavor of the butter will shine through in the finished cookies.
- Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will develop the gluten in the flour, resulting in tough cookies.
- Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes. This helps prevent the cookies from spreading too much during baking.
- If you don't have a double boiler, you can melt the white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl set over a pan of simmering water.
