To make these Peanut Butter Raspberry Linzer Treats, you will need the following ingredients per serving:
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup ground almonds
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1/4 cup raspberry jam
- Powdered sugar, for dusting
To start, preheat your oven to 350°F. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour and ground almonds. In a separate bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the peanut butter and mix until well combined. Gradually add the flour mixture to the peanut butter mixture and mix until a dough forms.
Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to about 1/4 inch thickness. Using a cookie cutter, cut out an even number of circles. Place half of the circles on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Spoon a small amount of raspberry jam onto each circle, leaving a small border around the edge. Top each circle with another circle of dough and press the edges together to seal.
Bake the Peanut Butter Raspberry Linzer Treats for 12-15 minutes, or until lightly golden brown. Allow the treats to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Once cooled, dust the treats with powdered sugar.
These Peanut Butter Raspberry Linzer Treats are a perfect combination of sweet and tangy flavors. The peanut butter adds a rich and nutty flavor, while the raspberry jam provides a sweet and tangy contrast. The appearance of these treats is also very appetizing, with the raspberry jam peeking through the cut-out center of the top cookie. These treats are perfect for any occasion and are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
