Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). (5 minutes)

02

Step
35 mins

In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened butter and the flour until smooth and creamy. Stir in the heavy cream until just combined. Gather the dough into a ball, wrap in plastic wrap, and chill for 30 minutes. (35 minutes)

03

Step
20 mins

Lightly sprinkle a clean cutting board with white sugar. Roll out the chilled dough to about 1/4-inch thickness on the sugared surface. Use a 3-inch round cookie cutter to cut out 24 circles. Gently roll each circle into a slightly oval shape. Place the cookies on an ungreased cookie sheet, leaving about an inch of space between each. (20 minutes)

04

Step
25 mins

Bake in the preheated oven until the edges of the cookies are very lightly golden brown, about 10 to 12 minutes. Cool the cookies slightly on the baking sheet before carefully transferring them to wire racks to cool completely. (25 minutes)

05

Step
10 mins

While the cookies cool, prepare the filling. In a medium bowl, cream together 1/2 cup (1 stick) softened butter, confectioners' sugar, egg yolk, and amaretto liqueur (or Swedish Arrack Punsch) until the mixture is light, fluffy, and well blended. (10 minutes)

06

Step
15 mins

To assemble the cookies, spread about a rounded teaspoon of filling on the bottom of one cookie and gently press another cookie, bottom side down, on top of the filling to create a sandwich. Repeat with the remaining cookies and filling. (15 minutes)

For the best flavor and texture, ensure your butter is properly softened before creaming.
Chilling the dough is crucial for preventing the cookies from spreading too much during baking. Don't skip this step!
If you don't have a cookie cutter, a water glass or the rim of a jar can be used as a substitute.
These cookies are best enjoyed the day they are assembled, but they can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Bring to room temperature before serving.
