❄️🍪 Dreamy Raspberry-Filled Almond Snow Cookies – Buttery, Fruity & Melting Magic! 🍓✨
These fluffy, melt-in-your-mouth cookies burst with sweet raspberry goodness wrapped in a soft almond hug!
Ingredients:
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon almond extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup raspberry preserves
1/2 cup powdered sugar (for dusting)
Directions:
Stage 1: Prepare the Dough
In a large bowl, cream together the butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy.
Stir in the almond extract.
Gradually add the flour and salt, mixing until a soft dough forms.
Stage 2: Fill and Shape
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
Scoop 1 tablespoon of dough, flatten it slightly in your palm.
Place 1/2 teaspoon of raspberry preserves in the center.
Carefully fold the dough around the filling and roll into a ball.
Stage 3: Bake
Place the dough balls onto an ungreased baking sheet about 2 inches apart.
Bake for 12-14 minutes, or until set but not browned.
Let cool slightly, then roll the warm cookies in powdered sugar.
Cool completely on wire racks and dust with additional powdered sugar before serving.

Tips:
Use a small spoon to easily tuck the preserves inside.
Do not overbake; they should stay pale for a tender bite.
Try using seedless raspberry preserves for a smoother center.
Freeze shaped, unbaked cookies for a quick fresh batch later.
For a festive look, sprinkle with edible glitter dust too!
