Chocolate jam cuts - Chokladsnittar med sylt

CHOCOLATE JAM CUTS
Chokladsnittar med sylt

Lovely cookies no matter the occasion!

Makes approx 26 cookies

7 oz butter or margarine
1/3 cup cane sugar
2 cups flour
1/4 cup finely chopped nuts
¾ tablespoon cocoa powder

Filling:
approx 2 tablespoons jam, e.g. raspberry

Glaze:
1/3 cup powdered sugar
½ to ¾ tablespoon water


Heat the oven to 350F.

Stir fat, cane sugar and flour, preferably in a food processor, to a dough – do not overwork it. Split the dough in two and flavour one part with chopped nuts and the other with cocoa. Roll out each dough into two sausages, as long as the baking plate. Put a nut dough on top of a chocolate dough and make a “dent” alongside the sausage.

Filling: Fill the “dent” with jam and bake in the oven for 15 to 20 minutes.

Glaze: Mix powdered sugar and water and spread it on the cookies after baking.

Enjoy!
