Nanas Butter Cookies With Milk Jam Filling Recipes

Steps:

• Using an electric mixer on high speed, beat butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla in a medium bowl until light and fluffy, about 4 minutes. Reduce speed to low; add milk, salt, and 2 1/2 cups flour and mix just to combine. Form dough into a 1/2"-thick disk and wrap in plastic. Chill until firm, at least 1 hour.
• Let dough sit at room temperature to soften slightly, about 5 minutes. Roll dough out between 2 sheets of parchment paper until about 1/8" thick. Cut out rounds with a floured 2 1/2"-diameter cookie cutter. Cut out a circle in half of the rounds with a 3/4"-diameter cookie cutter and transfer to 2 parchment-lined baking sheets, spacing 1" apart.
• Whisk egg and 1 teaspoon water in a small bowl and brush tops of cookies with egg wash. Bake cookies, rotating halfway through, until golden brown, 12&endash;15 minutes. Transfer baking sheets to wire racks and let cookies cool.
• Combine milk, sugar, and baking soda in a large saucepan; scrape in vanilla seeds and add pod. Bring just to a boil over medium heat, stirring to dissolve sugar. Reduce heat and simmer, whisking occasionally, until mixture is reduced to about 1 1/4 cups (it will darken and separate, with little bits visible), 80&endash;90 minutes. Strain milk jam through a fine mesh sieve into a medium bowl and let cool.
• Spoon a small amount of milk jam onto flat side of a cookie without a hole and sandwich with a cookie with a hole. Repeat with remaining cookies and filling. Dust with powdered sugar, if desired.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• 2. In you stand mixer, cream butter and sugar.
• 3. Once creamed, add eggs. Continue to beat until smooth and very creamy.
• 4. In a separate bowl, sift together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
• 5. Once combined, gradually add into the cream mixture. Mix well, then add in vanilla.
• 6. Roll dough into small balls, place on prepared cookie sheet (parchment paper or non-stick mat) then flatten with the bottom of a cup coated in powdered sugar.
• 7. Bake for about 10-12 minutes, depending on your oven. You want them to be a light golden brown. If you prefer a crispier cookie, bake for 13-14 minutes. Spread raspberry jam over cookies while they are still warm. Press another cookie on top. Serve them on your Nana's china, or whatever you have on hand. Nana wrote in her original recipe to hide 5 if you want any for yourself. They go quick!

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• In a medium bowl, cream together the butter, white sugar and egg yolks. Mix in flour a little bit at a time until a soft dough forms. Roll dough into 1 inch balls. If dough is too soft, refrigerate for 15 to 20 minutes. Place balls 2 inches apart onto ungreased cookie sheets. Use your finger or an instrument of similar size to make a well in the center of each cookie. Fill the hole with 1/2 teaspoon of preserves.
• Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven, until golden brown on the bottom. Remove from cookie sheets to cool on wire racks.

Steps:

• To make the sour milk, mix the milk and lemon juice together in a small bowl and set aside until needed.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
• In a large bowl add the flour, baking soda, salt, oats, cinnamon and brown sugar together.
• Next add the melted butter and shortening, mixing lightly.
• Lastly, slowly add in the sour milk, making sure to mix well.
• Chill the dough for 1/2 hour.
• Then on a lightly floured board, roll to 1/4 inch thick.
• Cut the dough using a 2" round cookie cutter. Make sure to have an even number of cookie rounds.
• Place a spoonful of jam in the center of the cookie, then top with another cookie.
• Make sure to lightly press the edges together.
• Roll the cookie edges in the ground nuts.
• Place on a lightly greased cookie sheet and bake in a 350 degree oven for 10 - 12 minutes.
