This is my best recipe for Raspberry Caves, A.K.A Hallongrottor in Swedish. This is a classic Swedish cookie and they are just so delicious! They have very few ingredients and you can eat them warm, fresh out of the oven!
30 Cookies
Ingredients
- 2 Cups (4 ½ dl) All Purpose Flour
- 1 Teaspoon Baking Powder
- 3/5 Cup (1 ½ dl) Powdered Sugar
- 1 ½ Teaspoon Vanilla Powder
- ¾ Cup + 2 Tablespoons (200 g) Room Temperature Butter, Cubed
- ½ Cup (1 dl) Raspberry Jam
Instructions
- In a big bowl, add all purpose flour, baking powder, powdered sugar and vanilla sugar. Mix until evenly distributed.
- Add the cubed, room temperature butter. Work with hands until dough comes together.
- Divide the dough into two pieces.
- Put each piece of dough on a cutting board and roll them out into two long rolls with both hands.
- Cut each roll into 15 pieces.
- Roll each piece into balls. Press into the middle until you have a deep dent. You can use your finger, or use the opposite end of a brush or spatula. Do this immediately after rolling each piece into a ball to avoid cracks. Put on a lined baking tray.
- Using a piping bag, fill each cookie with some raspberry jam.
- Bake at 400 °F / 200 °C for about 10 minutes.
Keep in an airtight container for 2 weeks, or keep in the freezer for 6 months.
