Linzer Keksz

• 1/2 qt. flour
• 1/4 qt. butter
• margarine
• 1/8 qt. icing sugar
• 2 egg yolks
• 1/8 qt. grated lemon peel (zest)
• Jam for filling
• Icing sugar

1. Preheat oven to 350F.
2. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
3. Measure flour into a large bowl.
4. Cut in margarine until the size of small peas.
5. In a small bowl, beat together egg yolks and lemon zest.
6. Add icing sugar and egg yolk mixture to the flour and margarine.
7. Mix the dough together with a fork, then knead it in the bowl with your hands.
8. The dough appears quite dry at first, but it will soon form into a nice soft dough.
9. Divide dough in half and roll out one half on a lightly floured counter to 1/4 inch thick.
10. Using the circle cookie cutters, you will need to cut out one solid circle, and one with a hole in the center for each cookie.
11. Roll out the other half of the dough and continue to cut out a top and bottom section for each cookie.
12. Bake all circles in a single layer for 10-15 minutes or until just slightly golden.
13. Remove cookies onto a cooling rack.
14. When cool, spread a thin layer of jam on solid bottom circles.
15. Add a top circle (with a hole in the center) on top of the jam and sprinkle cookies with icing sugar.
