# What You Need:

→ Dough

01 - 2 cups all-purpose flour
02 - 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
03 - 3/4 cup granulated sugar
04 - 1 large egg
05 - 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

→ Filling

06 - 1/2 cup raspberry jam

→ Leavening

07 - 1 teaspoon baking powder

# How to Make It:

01 - In a large mixing bowl, cream together unsalted butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Incorporate the egg and vanilla extract, blending thoroughly.
02 - Gradually add all-purpose flour and baking powder to the butter mixture, mixing until a dough forms. Cover and refrigerate dough for 30 minutes to ensure firmness.
03 - On a floured surface, roll chilled dough to approximately 1/4-inch thick. Evenly spread raspberry jam over the surface, then carefully roll the dough into a tight log. Return to refrigerator and chill for 1 hour to set the shape.
04 - Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Slice the chilled dough log into 1/4-inch rounds and arrange on a lined baking sheet. Bake for 10-12 minutes until lightly golden at the edges. Cool on a wire rack before serving.

# Extra Tips:

01 - Chilling the dough both before and after rolling improves the structure and prevents spreading during baking.
