Description

Buttery Raspberry Crumble Cookies with Jam Filling are rich, tender cookies layered with sweet-tart raspberry jam and finished with a golden, crumbly topping. These bakery-style treats are elegant, indulgent, and perfect for special occasions or everyday baking.

Ingredients

Scale

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp kosher salt
¾ cup granulated sugar
1 cup unsalted butter, cubed and chilled
1 tsp vanilla extract
½ tsp almond extract
1 cup raspberry jam
Confectioners’ sugar, optional for dusting

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
Mix flour, salt, and sugar until evenly combined.
Add cold cubed butter and mix until coarse, crumbly texture forms.
Blend in vanilla and almond extract until slightly cohesive.
Set aside some dough for crumble topping.
Press dough into round cookie shapes and place on baking sheets.
Spoon 1 tsp raspberry jam into the center of each cookie.
Top cookies with reserved crumble dough without pressing down.
Chill cookies for 15–20 minutes before baking.
Bake for 15–18 minutes until edges are lightly golden.
Cool on baking sheet briefly, then transfer to wire rack.
Dust with confectioners’ sugar before serving if desired.

Notes

Keep butter cold to maintain a crumbly texture. Do not overmix dough. Seedless jam works best to prevent leaking during baking.
