Dark, bittersweet chocolate and a sweet-tart raspberry filling make a perfect pair.
Ingredients
- 3 c. all-purpose flour
- 1/3 c. Dutch-processed cocoa powder
- 1 tsp. baking soda
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 2 stick unsalted butter
- 1 1/4 c. granulated sugar
- 3/4 c. light-brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tsp. vanilla extract
- raspberry preserves
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with paddle attachment, beat together butter and sugars on medium speed until light yellow and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Scrape down sides of bowl as needed. Add eggs and vanilla, and beat on medium speed for 1 minute. Reduce mixer speed to low; gradually add flour mixture and mix until dough just barely comes together. Do not overmix.
- Turn dough out onto a lightly floured work surface and knead until flour has been incorporated and dough comes together, about 30 seconds. Divide in half; wrap one half with plastic wrap and set aside.
- Transfer unwrapped dough to a parchment-lined work surface. Flatten dough slightly with your hand, and then top with a second sheet of parchment. (Dust dough with flour if sticky.) Using a rolling pin, roll out dough between sheets of parchment to about 1 ⁄16-inch thickness; set aside. Remove plastic wrap from other dough half and repeat rolling process. Transfer dough, still sandwiched between parchment, to baking sheets and refrigerate until chilled, about 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Remove both dough halves from refrigerator and peel off all parchment. Using a 1 3/4-inch-wide round cookie cutter, cut cookies out of dough, rerolling scraps once. Place cookies on parchment-lined baking sheets, spacing 1 inch apart.
- Bake cookies 10 to 12 minutes, rotating baking sheets halfway through. Cool on baking sheets, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- To fill sandwiches: Turn half the cookies over so they're bottom-side up. Using a pastry bag or butter knife, add a dollop (about 1 teaspoon) of preserves onto each cookie bottom. Top with remaining cookies. Allow cookies to rest for at least 1 hour for preserves to set.
