Valentine’s Day Heart-Shaped Linzer Cookies with Tiptree Raspberry Preserve

These buttery, almond-infused cookies filled with sweet-tart Tiptree Raspberry Preserve are as romantic as they are delicious—perfect for Valentine’s Day!


Ingredients:

  • 1 cup (225g) unsalted butter, softened
  • 2/3 cup (85g) granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp almond extract
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 2 cups (250g) all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup (90g) finely ground almonds or almond flour
  • 1/2 cup Tiptree Raspberry Preserve (or your favorite flavor)
  • Powdered sugar (for dusting)

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Dough:
    In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Mix in the vanilla extract, almond extract, and salt. Gradually add the flour and ground almonds, mixing until just combined. Divide the dough in half, shape into discs, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.

  2. Roll and Cut:
    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper. Roll out one disc of dough on a lightly floured surface to about 1/8-inch thickness. Using a heart-shaped cookie cutter, cut out as many cookies as possible. With half of the hearts, use a smaller heart cutter to create a "window" in the center.

  3. Bake:
    Transfer the cookies to the prepared baking sheets and bake for 8–10 minutes, or until the edges are just beginning to turn golden. Cool completely on a wire rack.

  4. Assemble the Cookies:
    Spread about 1 teaspoon of Tiptree Raspberry Preserve onto the flat side of each solid cookie. Dust the cookies with the cut-out centers with powdered sugar, then gently sandwich them over the preserve-topped cookies.

  5. Serve and Enjoy:
    These cookies are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.


These Heart-Shaped Linzer Cookies are the perfect way to sweeten up your Valentine’s Day, combining buttery almond cookies with the rich, fruity flavor of Tiptree preserves. Whether for your loved ones or yourself, they’re a treat worth savoring.
