SWIRL SHORTBREAD COOKIE SANDWICHES WITH RASPBERRY FILLING
The traditional British filling for these swirl sandwich cookies is raspberry or strawberry jam with buttercream frosting. Our cookies are made with homemade raspberry filling and a white chocolate mascarpone cream. These shortbread cookies look impressive, and they're easy to make if you follow this simple recipe trick: Refrigerate them before baking to re-solidify the butter so the cookies hold their shape in the oven.

Steps:
- For the raspberry filling: Combine the raspberries, granulated sugar and lemon juice in a medium saucepan and heat over medium heat, crushing the fruit and stirring occasionally. Bring the mixture to a boil, whisk in the cornstarch and lower to a simmer. Simmer until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and allow to cool to room temperature. Refrigerate until ready to use.
- For the cream filling: Add the white chocolate to a bowl fitted over a pot of simmering water to make a double boiler. Heat until the chocolate is fully melted, then remove the bowl and allow to cool slightly, 5 to 10 minutes.
- Once cool, whisk in the mascarpone and confectioners' sugar and continue to whisk until all lumps of sugar are dissolved and the mixture is smooth and velvety.
- For the cookie dough: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Add the butter to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment and beat until light and fluffy, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the confectioners' sugar and vanilla to the bowl and continue to beat, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed, until well incorporated, 60 to 90 seconds.
- Whisk together the flour and salt in a medium bowl. On low speed, add the flour mixture to the butter mixture and beat to combine. Add the milk and mix just a bit more until everything is incorporated. Transfer the dough to a piping bag fitted with a medium star tip.
- Line 2 baking sheets with parchment and pipe 1 1/2-inch circles of dough, about 12 on each sheet. Chill in the refrigerator for about 8 minutes.
- Bake until light golden brown on the sides, 12 to 15 minutes. Allow to cool on the baking sheets.
- Once all cookies have been baked and cooled, spoon the raspberry filling onto the bottom of half of the cookies. Scoop the cream filling into a piping bag fitted with a small round tip and pipe it on top of the raspberry filling. Use the remaining cookies as tops to create sandwich cookie.
SPIRAL SHORTBREAD COOKIES
These cookies are very pretty and light, perfect for tea parties. They also look more complex than they are; you simply make two sets of dough (one plain, the other chocolate) and roll them into a cylinder, then slice them and bake.

Steps:
- Time does not include refrigerating the doughs.
- To make the plain dough: Using a sharp knife, slice the vanilla bean in half lengthwise.
- Separate the seeds from the skin by scraping the blade of the knife along the inside of the bean.
- Place the butter, sugar, egg yolks, vanilla bean seeds and orange zest in a medium sized mixing bowl and beat with an electric mixer on low speed until the ingredients are combined, about 1 minute.
- Combine the baking powder, salt and flour and add to the butter mixture all at once.
- Beat on low speed just until combined, about 1 minute.
- (Do not overmix the dough, or it will become tough.) Remove the dough from the bowl and form it into a 4-inch by 9-inch rectangle and wrap in plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
- (The dough can be made in advance and refrigerated overnight.) To make the chocolate dough: Using a sharp knife, slice the vanilla bean in half lengthwise.
- Separate the seeds from the skin by scraping the blade of the knife along the inside of the bean.
- Place the butter, sugar, egg yolks, vanilla bean seeds and orange zest in a medium sized mixing bowl and beat with an electric mixer on low speed until the ingredients are combined, about 1 minute.
- Combine the baking powder, salt, cocoa powder and flour and add to the butter mixture all at once.
- Beat on low speed just until combined, about 1 minute.
- (Do not overmix the dough, or it will become tough.) Remove the dough from the bowl and form it into a 4-inch by 9-inch rectangle and wrap in plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator for one hour.
- (The dough can be made in advance and refrigerated overnight.) To make the spiral pattern: Preheat an oven to 400 degrees.
- Remove the doughs from the refrigerator.
- (They will be hard; to make them easier to roll, give them a few quick raps with a rolling pin.) Lightly flour each side of each piece of dough and roll each piece into a 7-inch by 16-inch rectangle about 1/8-inch thick.
- Brush what will be your bottom layer of dough with a thin coat of water.
- Place one dough on top of the other and roll out another inch or so.
- Brush the top dough with another thin coat of water to help the dough stick to itself.
- Starting at the long side, roll the two dough into a cylinder 1 1/2- to 1 3/4-inch in diameter.
- Put in the refrigerator for another 10 minutes or so until hard.
- Cut the cylinder into 1/2-inch thick slices and lay the cookies cut side down on a parchment paper covered baking sheet, about 1/2-inch apart.
- Bake until lightly browned, about 15 minutes and cool on a wire rack.
- The cookies will store for 5 days in an airtight container.
CHRISTMAS PINWHEEL COOKIES
This recipe was handed down by my 'Baba' (Ukrainian for 'grandmother'). She originally just made a chocolate and plain pinwheel cookie, but I adapted it easily to create a very colorful variety that my kids and husband adore at Christmas time!

Steps:
- Sift the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together into a bowl. Resift again into another bowl.
- Beat the butter with the brown and white sugars in a mixing bowl until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs and vanilla until smooth. Gradually stir in the flour mixture until evenly blended. Gather the dough into a ball, and divide into two equal parts. Place one half in a second bowl. Add red food coloring to the dough in one bowl, and green food coloring to the dough in the other bowl. Use a fork or wooden spoon to blend the food coloring into the dough until evenly blended. Add additional drops of food coloring to make the desired shade.
- Roll out the red dough to 1/4 inch (5mm) thickness. Roll out the green dough to 1/4 inch (5mm) thickness, and place on top of the red dough. Beginning on one edge, roll the doughs to make a log so the two colors spiral inside each other. Wrap the log in waxed paper, then in a cotton towel, and refrigerate at least 8 hours.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly grease 2 baking sheets.
- Unwrap the dough log, and place on a clean, lightly floured surface. Slice the log into rounds 1/8 inch (3 mm) thick, and place on prepared baking sheets.
- Bake in preheated oven until set, 5 to 6 minutes. Watch carefully to prevent edges from browning. Remove from oven, and cool on racks.
