Minty Raspberry Filled Sugar Cookies Recipes

Steps:

• 1. To make the filling, combine all ingredients. Mix until smooth, about 2-3 minutes (I use a hand mixer). Cover with plastic wrap and put in the fridge while you make the cookies.
• 2. Pre heat oven to 350 degrees and line baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside. To make the cookies, combine flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt in medium size bowl. Stir with spoon or fork to combine and set this aside.
• 3. In large bowl, with hand mixer, combine butter and sugar and mix until smooth and airy (2-3 minutes). Add eggs and vanilla and continue to mix. When mixture is smooth, add half the dry ingredients into the wet and mix on low. Now add the rest of the dry ingredients until dough is smooth. Now add the crushed white chocolate peppermint bark and mix into dough. Place dough into the fridge for 15 to 30 minutes to set up.
• 4. Using a teaspoon, form dough into small 1 inch balls. Place on prepared baking sheets. Bake 10 minutes and cool slightly on cooling rack, then remove to paper or kitchen towels to cool completely. You should get 48 single cookies.
• 5. Remove filling from fridge and take a tablespoon of the filling and place it on the flat side of a cookie. Now take a second cookie and cover the filling to make a sandwich.
• 6. Dust with confectioner's sugar and enjoy! I refrigerate these until about a half hour before I'm ready to serve them.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°. In a microwave, melt baking chips with cream; stir until smooth. In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and preserves until blended. Add melted baking chip mixture; beat until smooth. Refrigerate until assembling., In a large bowl, mix cookie mix, butter and egg until blended. Shape into 1-in. balls; place 2 in. apart on ungreased baking sheets. Bake 7-9 minutes or until edges are light brown. Cool on pans 5 minutes. Remove to wire racks to cool completely., Spread 1 tablespoon filling on the bottoms of half of the cookies; cover with remaining cookies. Refrigerate in an airtight container.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
• In a large bowl, cream butter with brown sugar and 1/3 cup white sugar. Blend in the vanilla and milk. Mix in the flour and corn starch. Stir in the mini chocolate chips.
• Form the dough into 1 inch balls, and roll in the remaining white sugar. Place on the prepared cookie sheet, about 1 1/2 inches apart. Use your finger or thumb to press straight down into the center of each ball, making a well for the jam. Neatly fill each cookie with a small amount of jam.
• Bake in preheated oven for 13 to 15 minutes, or until cookies are just beginning to turn golden around the edges. Let cookies cool before eating.

Steps:

• Make the cookies: In a large bowl, using a spoon, cream the butter, cream cheese, sugar and salt until smooth and fluffy. Add the eggs and vanilla extract, and whisk to incorporate some air and to dissolve the sugar crystals, about 1 minute. Stir in the flour and baking powder until just incorporated.
• Heat oven to 350 degrees and line two rimmed sheet pans with parchment paper. Using two spoons or a cookie scooper, plop out 2-tablespoon/50-gram rounds spaced a couple of inches apart. (You should get about 7 to 8 cookies per sheet pan.) Place the sheet pans in the freezer for 15 to 20 minutes until the dough is no longer sticky and easier to handle.
• While the dough chills, make the frosting: In a fine-mesh sieve set over a medium bowl, sift the ground raspberries, using a spoon to help pass them through, until most of the ruby-red powder is in the bowl and most of the seeds are left behind in the sieve. (Discard the seeds.)
• To the bowl, add the 1 cup butter, confectioners' sugar, vanilla extract and salt and, with an electric hand mixer, mix on low speed until the butter absorbs the sugar. Then, turn the speed up to high and beat until the frosting doubles in size, about 2 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula to ensure all the ingredients are incorporated. Transfer the frosting to a small container, cover tightly, and set aside. (You should have about 2 cups of frosting.)
• Remove the sheet pans from the freezer. Roll the chilled dough into even balls and flatten them slightly with your fingers so they're about 2 inches wide and 1 inch high. Bake the cookies for 13 to 15 minutes, rotating the pans and switching racks halfway through, or until they no longer look wet on top, are still light in color and spring back to the touch. They will puff up and crack slightly. Let cool completely on the sheet pan. (They will continue to cook as they sit.)
• Using a butter knife or offset spatula, frost each cooled cookie with the raspberry frosting and adorn with the sprinkles.
