Ingredients
  

1 cup almond flour

1 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 cup powdered sugar, plus extra for dusting

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened

1 large egg

1 teaspoon pure almond extract

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/3 cup raspberry jam

Optional: crushed almonds for garnish

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

    Mix Dry Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, all-purpose flour, powdered sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.

      Cream Butter and Sugars: In a separate large bowl, beat the softened butter until creamy. Add the remaining powdered sugar and continue to mix until light and fluffy.

        Incorporate Eggs and Extracts: Beat in the egg, almond extract, and vanilla extract until fully combined.

          Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, mixing until a soft dough forms.

            Prepare for Filling: Divide the dough into small balls, about 1 tablespoon in size. Flatten each ball slightly in your palm, creating a small well in the center.

              Add Jam: Place about half a teaspoon of raspberry jam into the well of each dough ball. Carefully fold the edges of the dough over the jam, completely enclosing it. Roll into a ball again, ensuring there are no cracks.

                Bake the Cookies: Place the filled dough balls on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden.

                  Cool and Dust: Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Once cooled, dust generously with powdered sugar.

                    Optional Garnish: For added texture, sprinkle crushed almonds on top of the cookies right after dusting with powdered sugar for a delightful crunch.
