Cookbook:Hilda Rolls

Hilda rolls (German: Hildabrötchen) are German sandwich cookies filled with jam. They are very similar to, and perhaps interchangeable with, Linzer cookies.

Ingredients

 * 300 g all-purpose flour, sifted
 * 110 g white granulated sugar
 * 1 package vanilla sugar
 * 1 egg
 * 150 g butter
 * 125 g powdered sugar
 * 2 spoons water
 * 2 tablespoons jam

Procedure

 * 1) Knead the flour, butter, sugar, vanilla sugar, and egg into a dough. Chill for a while.
 * 2) Roll out the dough to about ¼ cm thick.
 * 3) Cut round cookies out of the dough. For half the cookies, cut a small shape out of the middle—these will be the tops.
 * 4) Place the cookies on a greased tray and bake at 150°C for about 20 minutes. Let cool.
 * 5) Combine the powdered sugar and water to make a smooth icing. Carefully dip the top cookies in the icing to coat one face.
 * 6) Spread some jam on the bottom layer cookies. Top with the iced cutout cookies.
