Instructions

Working time approx. 50 minutes; Rest time approx. 2 hours; Total time approx. 2 hours 50 minutes

For 30 pieces, with spelt flour

You will need three cookie cutters of the same shape but different sizes. Combine the flour, sugar, vanilla sugar, lemon zest, and almonds in a bowl. Add the butter and egg and knead well. Then wrap in foil and refrigerate for two hours. Preheat oven to 180°C (top/bottom heat). Sprinkle flour on the work surface and roll out the dough to a thickness of 2 mm. Cut out the same number of cookies in each of the three sizes. Place on a baking sheet lined with baking paper and bake on the middle rack for 10-12 minutes. While the cookies are still warm, spread jam on the bottoms and stack them together. Dust with powdered sugar.
