Instructions

Mix the butter and sugar together. Stir in eggs. Knead in the flour mixed with baking powder. Chill the dough for 30 minutes. Roll out on a well-floured work surface and cut out molds. There must be the same number of motifs.
Use a thimble to cut a hole out of half of the biscuits, as the biscuits will be filled with jam. Place on a baking tray lined with baking paper.
Bake at 200 ° C top and bottom heat or 180 ° C hot air for about 10 minutes. The cookies must still be light.
After cooling down to half without a hole, spread a sour jam (e.g. currant) and put the other half with the hole on top. Finally dust with powdered sugar.
The cookies save themselves well in a tin or Tupperware and taste particularly good if they have been steeped for a few days.

About Editorial Staff

The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
