Ingredients:
1 cup Unsalted butter, softened
1 3/4 cup Confectioners' sugar
1 1/2 tsp Pure vanilla extract
1 1/2 cup All-purpose flour, sifted before measuring
1/2 cup Finely ground hazelnuts or macadamia nuts
1/4 cup Seedless raspberry preserves (approx)
Food coloring as desired, for decorating
Instructions:
1. Heat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease cookie sheet(s) or line
with parchment paper.

2. Beat butter and 1/2 cup of the confectioners' sugar in large bowl
of electric mixer on high speed until well combined. Mix in vanilla.
Stop the mixer and add the flour and ground nuts. Mix on low speed
just until combined.

3. Using 1 teaspoon dough for each, roll into rounds. Place on baking
sheet. Dip the bottom of a flat glass in confectioners' sugar,
reserving 1/4 cup for this purpose. Press each ball, flattening to a
1-inch round.

4. Bake just until they begin to color, 9 to 11 minutes. Transfer
to a wire rack to cool.

5. Spread bottoms of half the cookies with preserves, using about 1/4
teaspoon for each cookie. Sandwich together with another cookie.

6. For icing, mix remaining 1 cup confectioners' sugar with just
enough water to make it spreading consistency. Tint icing with food
color, if desired.

7. Decorate top of cookies with icing, using a pastry bag, if
desired.
