Ingredients
Ingredients
- 2 1/4 cups flour (spooned and leveled), plus more for work surface
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon fine salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 cup almond paste
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1 stick unsalted butter, room temperature
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup jam (apricot, blackberry, or raspberry)
- 1 cup confectioners’ sugar
- 4 teaspoons whole milk
Directions
Whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. In a food processor, pulse almond paste and sugar until smooth. Add butter and eggs and blend until smooth. Add flour mixture and pulse until dough forms. Divide into 4 equal pieces, wrap in plastic, and chill 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. On a lightly floured surface roll each piece into a 10-inch log. Transfer logs to 2 parchment-lined baking sheets and flatten to about 2 inches across. Bake until just dry, 12 to 15 minutes.
Remove from oven; with the handle of a wooden spoon, make a trench down each log. Spread 2 tablespoons jam into each trench. Bake until golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes more. Let cool on sheets on wire racks.
Whisk together confectioners’ sugar and milk until smooth. Drizzle glaze over logs. Let glaze harden, 20 minutes. With a serrated knife, cut logs on the diagonal into 1-inch slices. (Store in airtight containers, up to 1 week.)

Lovely almond cookie! I used a clove spiced cherry preserve, and my guests loved it. I left off the drizzle, as it was sweet enough.

Made these cookies to have for dessert for Easter and they are delicious! I made them with raspberry and blackberry jam and since I still have almond paste leftover, I'm going to make more using different flavored jams.

I wonder if the almond paste can be replaced with marzipan?

These cookies are absolutely delicious! In response to previous post, I wouldn't sub the almond paste, it adds the chewy texture and unique flavor to the cookies. I think without the almond past the cookie would become dry and crunchy like a biscotti. I will make a double batch next time I make these cookies, they were that good!

I made this cookie last Friday, December 5, for a luncheon and prayer meeting for nine ladies. I baked one-fourth of the recipe using raspberry jam. They are fantastic and so easy to make. I will make the rest next week using apricot and raspberry jam.
