Brown Butter Raspberry Almond Thumbprint Cookies

Delightful cookies that combine rich, nutty flavors with a sweet, tart raspberry filling.

  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 24 cookies 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (227 grams) Unsalted Butter
  • 2 ¼ cups (280 grams) All-Purpose Flour
  • ½ cup (100 grams) Granulated Sugar
  • ½ cup (50 grams) Almond Meal
  • ½ cup (160 grams) Seedless Raspberry Jam
  • 1 teaspoon (5 ml) Vanilla Extract
  • ¼ teaspoon (1.5 grams) Salt

Instructions

  1. Melt the butter over medium heat in a saucepan, stirring frequently until golden brown (about 5-7 minutes). Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
  2. Cream together the warm browned butter and granulated sugar until smooth (about 3-4 minutes).
  3. Add the vanilla extract and salt to the mixture.
  4. Whisk together the all-purpose flour and almond meal in a separate bowl.
  5. Combine the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing on low until just combined (about 2-3 minutes).
  6. Scoop tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto a baking sheet, creating a ½-inch indentation in each ball.
  7. Fill each indentation with raspberry jam.
  8. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 12-15 minutes until golden brown.
  9. Cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes

Allow the brown butter to cool slightly before adding it to avoid cooking the sugar. Use a cookie scoop for uniform sizes.
