Linzer Cookies

Linzer Cookies, called Linzer Augen 👀 in German, are made with a simple „Mürbteig“. No baking powder, no flavoring, no nuts. The filling is traditionally apricot jam. The three holes on the top make these cookies immediatley recognizable ❤️

Have you tried them? What about the filling? How do you make them?

Dough recipe, 1-2-3 dough

100g powdered sugar

200g cold butter

300g flour

1 yolk

(Scale up to your needs)

Swiftly knead dough. Chill for an hour. Roll about 3mm thick. Use fluted round cookie cutters, and a round piping tip for the top cookie.

Bake about 12 mins at 360F / 180C until edges start to slightly brown.

Dust the top with powdered sugar before assembling.

Some also use thinly sliced almond for the top cookie - apply before baking.

Make sure to have no lumps in your apricot jam. I use a sieve for that.

Enjoy!
