Delicious filled cookies. The recipe calls for a liqueur called Swedish Arrack Punsch, but I usually use amaretto as it is easier to find and tastes delicious.
Ingredients
- ½ cup butter, softened
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 6 tablespoons heavy cream
- white sugar for dusting
- ¾ cup confectioners' sugar
- 1 egg yolk
- 2 teaspoons Swedish arrack punsch
Directions
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Step 2
In a bowl, cream together 1 cup butter and the flour until smooth and creamy. Stir in heavy cream. Scrape dough into a ball.
Step 3
Sprinkle the white sugar on a cutting board. Roll out the dough to about a 1/4-inch thickness on the sugared surface. Using a 3-inch round cookie cutter, cut dough into 24 circles. Using the rolling pin, roll each circle into a slightly oval shape. Place cookies on an ungreased cookie sheet about an inch apart.
Step 4
Bake in the preheated oven until the edges of the cookies get very lightly brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Cool slightly on cookie sheet; then transfer them to cooling racks using a spatula.
Step 5
To make the filling, mix together 1/2 cup of butter, confectioners' sugar, egg yolk, and Swedish arrack punsch in a bowl. Beat until mixture is well blended and creamy.
Step 6
To assemble, spread about a rounded teaspoon of filling on the bottom of one cookie and place another cookie, bottom side down, on the filling to form a sandwich. Repeat with the rest of the cookies.
