Shortbread Sandwiches Recipe

• 2 cups (about 10 ounces) all purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
• 2 sticks (8 ounces) unsalted butter, at room temperature
• 1/2 cup (about 2 1/2 ounces) sugar
• 1/4 cup jam, Nutella, peanut butter, or chocolate ganache

1. Adjust oven rack to upper middle position and preheat oven to 350u0b0F. Butter an 8-inch springform pan. In a small bowl, whisk together flour and salt; set aside. In the bowl of a food processor, process butter until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add sugar and pulse for one minute. Add flour mixture and pulse just until dough comes together.
2. Divide dough into two equal portions. Press one half of dough into bottom of prepared pan until even. Spread with filling of choice, leaving 1/3-inch border at edge of pan. On a lightly floured surface, roll second half of dough out into 8-inch circle. Transfer to pan and place on top of filling. Gently press down on edge of dough to seal. Bake until golden, about 45 minutes.
3. Let cookies rest in pan for 15 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack. When cool, cut into wedges or squares.
