raspberry cream sandwich cookies

It’s official.  I’m a grown-up.  A real, live, grown-up adult with a real, paying, responsibility-laden job.  Words to describe how I feel about this?  Let’s see…excited, nervous, happy, TERRIFIED.  What if I don’t like it?  What if I don’t know what to do with a patient?  What if a patient falls while I’m working with them?  And most importantly, what if my co-workers don’t like me?  Oooh, or what if I don’t like them?

After almost a week and a half of work, I can officially say my fears and time spent worrying about the co-workers were needless and a waste of time.  They are a great group of people full of funny stories, team work, sarcasm, good advice, and celeb gossip.  I basically spent the entire week asking everyone question after question about every little thing to know, so I wanted to bake them a ‘lil somethin’ somethin’ to thank them for their help.  I turned to my trusty gal pal Martha Stewart for a fun, unique cookie and knew I had a winner when I saw these raspberry sandwich cookies.

The cookies turned out a bit thinner than I had expected but it turned out to be a good thing, as the thinner cookies really let the cream filling really shine through.  I think if the cookies had been any thicker the frosting would have gotten lost in between two massive cookies.  And the raspberry cream?  I basically wanted to take a bath in it.  Which makes no sense but I think you know what I mean.

So what did the new co-workers say about the cookies?  They loved them.  I loved them.  We all loved them.

Ingredients

  • for the cookies:
  • 1 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 1/4 sticks 10 tbsp unsalted butter, at room temperature
  • 1 1/2 cups plus 2 tsp sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1 vanilla bean halved lengthwise seeds scraped and reserved
  • for the raspberry cream:
  • 1 cup 6 oz fresh raspberries
  • 7 1/2 oz white chocolate coarsley chopped
  • 1/3 cup heavy whipping cream

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Set aside.
  • In medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  • In large bowl with an electric mixer, beat together the butter and 1 1/2 cup sugar until light and fluffy, 2-3 minutes.
  • Add in egg, vanilla extract, and vanilla seeds and mix until smooth, scraping down the sides of the bowl to make sure everything is combined.
  • Reduce speed of electric mixer to low and gradually mix in flour mixture.
  • Scoop batter by the tablespoon and space at least 2 inches apart on prepared baking sheets.
  • Bake in preheated oven for 10-12 minutes.
  • If you are baking two sheets at a time, make sure to rotate the sheets halfway through baking time, about 5 minutes.
  • To make the filling, puree the raspberries and remaining 2 tsp sugar in a food processor.
  • Pour mixture through a fine sieve over a small bowl.
  • Press the juice through the sieve, leaving the seeds behind.
  • This may take a few minutes, to get all of the juice through. Set mixture aside and discard seeds.
  • Melt white chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a pan of simmering water.
  • Stir continuously until smooth, then remove from heat.
  • Slowly whisk in cream, followed by the raspberry mixture.
  • Refrigerate for at least an hour before filling the cookie sandwiches.
  • To make the sandwich cookies, spread raspberry cream on undersides of half the cookies, then sandwich them with one of the remaining cookies.
  • Enjoy!!
