Ingredients
Makes about 30-35 sandwiched linzer cookies
1 cup (226 g) unsalted butter
2/3 cup (135g) sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp (5g) vanilla extract
1 cup (100g) ground almonds, toasted or plain
3 cups (380 g) flour
1 tsp (4g) baking powder
1/2 tsp (3g) salt
1/2 tsp (1g) ground cardamom
Strawberry Cardamom Jam
14 oz (400g) fresh or frozen strawberries
1/2 cup (100g) sugar
1 tbsp (15ml) water
1 tbsp (15ml) lemon juice
1/2 tsp (1g) ground cardamom
For Dusting
powdered sugar
1. In a medium bowl combine flour with baking powder, ground almonds, salt and cardamom.
2. In a large bowl mix butter and sugar at medium-high speed until light and creamy. Add eggs, and beat until smooth. Beat in vanilla extract. Add flour mixture and stir to incorporate.
3. Divide the dough into 2 pieces, wrap in plastic wrap, press into small disks and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or if in a hurry freeze for 30 mins to 1 hr. The dough needs to be cold for easier rolling as this help the cookies keep their shape.
4. Meanwhile you can prepare the strawberry jam. The jam can also be made a day or two before to save time. Refrigerate until ready to use. In a small saucepan put the strawberries, sugar, cardamom, lemon juice and water. Bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally. My strawberries were pretty big and I pressed them with a fork to speed up the process. Simmer until the mixture is thick, for about 25-30 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool completely before using.
5. Preheat oven to 350F (180C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
6. On a well floured surface roll the first disk 1/8 inch (3 mm) thick. Cut the dough for the bottoms with a 2 inch (5 cm) linzer cutter. Transfer the cookies to the prepared baking sheet. Re-roll scraps and repeat.
7. Bake for 10 minutes until the cookies are lightly browned on the edges. Remove and let them cool on baking sheet for 2 minutes; remove from sheet and cool completely on wire rack.
8. Work the other dough and roll 1/8 inch (3 mm) thick. Assemble the small cutter into the linzer cutter and cut the tops of the linzer cookies. Transfer the top cookies to the prepared baking sheet. Re-roll scraps and repeat.
9. Bake the tops for 9 minutes until lightly browned. Again let them cool for 2 minutes on baking sheets; remove and cool completely on wire rack.
10. Invert the bottom cookies and add strawberry jam. Lightly dust with powdered sugar the top cookies.
11. Gently sandwich cookies together and let stand for several hours before serving.

Classic Austrian Linzer Cookies
My Classic Austrian Linzer Cookies recipe is one of my absolute favorite holiday cookies — the not-too-sweet and tender cookies are a perfect match with the sweet jam inside! Get the recipe:
Full disclosure: these Linzer cookies may just be my all-time favorite cookie. My Homemade Linzer Cookies are a holiday tradition for a reason! They're perfectly nutty and rich, super tender, and not-too-sweet. The sweet and tangy raspberry jam perfectly balances out the delicious almond flavor.
I wish I were eating one right now. Actually, any time these cookies pop into my mind, which is often, I wish I were eating one!
Linzer cookies are incredibly simple to make but look so beautiful with their little hole or heart-shaped cut in the middle, showing off that sweet jam, and topped with powder sugar. I love them with raspberry jam, but you can use any of your favorite preserves!

RECIPE
Cookies
415g - 2 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp freshly ground nutmeg
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp ground cloves
1/4 tsp salt
225g - 1 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
160g - 3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 egg yolk
2 tsp finely grated orange zest
Powdred sugar, for dusting
1 1/2 cup raspberry jam or Nutella.
Instructions:
Cookies
Add the flour, cinnamon, freshly ground nutmeg, baking powder, cloves and salt to a large mixing bowl. Whisk to combine.
In a separate bowl, add the butter and sugar and use an electric hand mixer to beat for about 3 minutes until pale and fluffy. Add the egg yolk, egg, vanilla extract and orange zest. Mix until all combined.
Add half of the flour mixture and use a wooden spoon or spatula to mix until well combined. Add the remaining flour mixture an repeat until a dough forms.
Split the mixture into two and place each dough piece on top of a large piece of baking paper. Cover with another sheet of baking paper and use a rolling pin to roll out to 1/8 inch thick. Chill in the fridge for 30 minutes to firm up. Alternatively you can place it in the freezer in a flat spot for 15 minutes.
Preheat your oven to 175°C / 350°F. Line two baking sheet with baking paper or silicone baking mats. Use a 2-3 inch round fluted cookie cutter to cut out as many cookies as you can. Tranfer to the baking trays as soon as you cut them. You can re-roll the dough scraps and cut out more cookies. Use a small, shaped cookie cutter to cut out windows in half the cookie discs. I used hearts and stars.
Bake for 10-12 minutes or until sides of cookies begin going golden. Let them cool on the baking trays for 5 minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.
Place the cooled cookies with the cut outs on a separate cooling rack over a baking tray and dust with powdered sugar. Add just less than a tsp of raspberry jam or Nutella on the remaining cookies and spread around using a spoon. Sandwich with the dusted cookies to finish.
Notes
Cookies can be stored in an airtight container for up to one week. Please note, they will soften after the first day and become almost cake like. The flavours will however intensify.

BETH'S CHOCOLATE HAZELNUT LINZER COOKIES RECIPE
Makes (24) Sandwiched Cookies
INGREDIENTS:
1 cup (240 g) butter
1 ¼ cups (125 g) powdered sugar
1 egg
1 egg yolk
2 tsp (10 ml) vanilla extract
1 ½ cups (180g) all-purpose flour
2 cups (240g) of Hazelnut Flour or Hazelnut meal (same thing)
½ tsp salt (2.5 ml)
¼ tsp (1.25 ml) baking powder
1/3 cup (80 ml) chocolate hazelnut spread (Nutella or other brand)
2-3 tbsp (26-39g) powdered sugar for dusting
METHOD:
Beat butter with an electric mixer until pale and fluffy. Then slowly add the sugar in stages until smooth and fluffy. Add in egg and egg yolk one at a time until well combined.
Then add vanilla extract.
In a smaller bowl combine all-purpose flour, hazelnut flour, salt, baking powder. Whisk together until combined. Add to the flour mixture to the butter mixture in thirds, until combined.
The dough will be very sticky. Remove the dough and form into 2 equal-sized mounds, place on parchment paper or wax paper. Flatten into disks (by folding the paper over it. It will be easier this way than handling it since it is so sticky!) and wrap in paper well. Refrigerate at least 4 hours or over night.
Then roll out one disk on a floured surface to 1/8 thick. Using the bottom half of the Linzer cookie cutter, cut out the bottoms and place on a parchment lined cookie sheet.
Bake bottoms at 350F (176C) for 10 mins. Remove and allow to cool on baking tray. They will continue to “bake” this way sitting on the hot tray and firm up.
Then add the star attachment to the Linzer cookie cutter and cut out the tops. Bake tops for just 9 mins. Allow to cool on tray as well.
Once the cookies are cooled, dust the tops with powdered sugar.
Then dollop a small amount (about the size of a marble) of Nutella on the bottom cookie, in the center. Top with star tops.
NOTE: Cookies could be baked the day before and assembled the day of.
