Ingredients
Scale
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup raspberry jam or preserves
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
Whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. In a separate bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add egg and vanilla, then mix in dry ingredients just until combined.
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment. Scoop tablespoon-sized dough portions, roll into balls, place 2 inches apart, and flatten slightly. Bake 10–12 minutes until set but soft. Cool completely.
Beat butter until creamy. Add powdered sugar and vanilla and mix until smooth. Gently fold in raspberry jam until fluffy.
Spread or pipe raspberry filling onto the flat side of half the cookies. Top with remaining cookies and press gently to form sandwiches.
