Ingredients:

  • 226 grams (1 cup) unsalted butter, softened
  • 40 grams (1/3 cup) powdered sugar
  • 50 grams (1/4 cup) granulated sugar
  • 5 milliliters (1 teaspoon) vanilla extract
  • 5 milliliters (1 teaspoon) almond extract
  • 270 grams (2 1/4 cups) all-purpose flour
  • 1 gram (1/4 teaspoon) kosher salt
  • 120 grams (1/2 cup) seedless raspberry jam or preserves (or preferred flavor)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F). Lightly spray a jumbo muffin pan with baking spray or grease and flour each well. Set aside.
  2. In a large mixing bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer, add the softened butter, powdered sugar, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and almond extract. Beat together for 2 to 3 minutes until light and creamy.
  3. Add the flour and salt, mixing just until mostly combined. Use your hands or a stiff spoon to finish mixing, ensuring not to overmix to avoid toughness.
  4. Use a cookie scoop or measuring cup to scoop out about 1/4 cup of the mixture and press it into the bottom of each well in the muffin pan, ensuring to go up the sides to create a well for the jam.
  5. Spoon about a tablespoon of raspberry jam into the center of each cookie.
  6. Sprinkle each cookie with a tablespoon or so of the remaining crumble topping.
  7. Bake the cookies for 18 to 22 minutes or until the tops are just beginning to turn golden brown.
  8. Let the cookies cool completely before removing them from the muffin pan. Use a thin spatula or knife to run around the edge before carefully removing them.

Notes: Feel free to customize these cookies with your favorite jam flavors such as strawberry, apricot, or peach. Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. Enjoy!
