Although I usually don\u2019t celebrate Valentine’s Day (I always say \u2013 why do we need a special day for love, that should be celebrated every single day?), sometimes it’s nice to be a little romantic and make heart shaped desserts and cookies. As a matter of fact, I made these cookies just because I wanted to use my heart shaped cookie cutter \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

These are nostalgic sandwich heart shaped jam cookies made of two butter almond cookies that are filled with red strawberry jam. As I wrote before, I made them heart shaped, but you can definitely make them in any other shape you\u2019d like.<\/p>\n

These sandwich heart shaped jam cookies are simply delicious, very easy to make and perfect for Valentine\u2019s day (and for all year round, for that matter). They have a melt-in-your-mouth texture, and are so sweet and pretty.<\/p>\n

Sandwich Heart Shaped Cookies Filled with Strawberry Jam<\/h2>\n

\n

\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n
\n

For the dough:<\/h4>\n
    \n
  • 100 grams (3\/4 cup) all-purpose flour<\/li>\n
  • 35 grams (1\/3 cup) almond meal<\/li>\n
  • 30 grams (3 tbsp.) cornstarch<\/li>\n
  • 100 grams (1 stick) cold butter, cut into cubes<\/li>\n
  • 40 grams (4 tbsp.) sugar powder<\/li>\n
  • Pinch of salt<\/li>\n
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract<\/li>\n
  • 1 egg yolk<\/li>\n
  • 1-2 tbsp. cold water<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    For the filling:<\/h4>\n
      \n
    • 200 grams (about \u00bd jar) smooth strawberry jam<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      For serving:<\/h4>\n
        \n
      • Sugar powder<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n
        \n
          \n
        1. Dough: in a food processor with a steel blade, put flour, almond meal, cornstarch, butter, powdered sugar, vanilla and salt and blend until a crumbly mixture is obtained.<\/li>\n
        2. Add the yolk and continue to blend until large chunks of dough form. If the dough does not combine into large lumps – gradually add a little water.<\/li>\n
        3. Transfer the dough to a lightly floured work surface, and form a disc shape with your hands.<\/li>\n
        4. Wrap in plastic wrap and cool in the refrigerator for about an hour.<\/li>\n
        5. On a floured surface, roll out the dough about 3-4 mm thick and cut out cookies of the desired shape. Make a small hole in \u00bd of the cookies using a small round cookie cutter.<\/li>\n
        6. Place the cookies on a baking pan lined with baking paper.<\/li>\n
        7. Preheat the oven to 170c degrees.<\/li>\n
        8. Bake the cookies for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.<\/li>\n
        9. Cool completely at room temperature.<\/li>\n
        10. Fill each pair of cookies with jam and close to a small sandwich.<\/li>\n
        11. Decorate with powdered sugar and serve.<\/li>\n<\/ol><\/div>\n
          \n
            \n
          • Keep the cookies in a closed container for up to a week.<\/li>\n
          • You can fill the cookies with any spread you like or jam in other flavors.<\/li>\n
          • Instead of almond meal you can use any other ground nut you like in the same amount.<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n
            \n\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
