Ingredients

• 225 grams Unsalted butter
• 100 grams Granulated sugar
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 300 grams All-purpose flour
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 150 grams Raspberry jam
• 20 grams Powdered sugar (for dusting)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, cream the unsalted butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).

Step 3

Mix in the vanilla extract until fully incorporated.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and salt.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, beating until a soft dough forms.

Step 6

Divide the dough into four equal portions. Roll each portion into a log approximately 25 cm (10 inches) long and place them on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them apart.

Step 7

Using your index finger or the back of a spoon, press a shallow groove down the center of each log. Be careful not to press all the way through to the bottom.

Step 8

Spoon the raspberry jam into the groove of each log, spreading it evenly along the length.

Step 9

Bake the logs in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden.

Step 10

Remove the baking sheets from the oven and let the logs cool for about 10 minutes. While still warm, use a sharp knife to slice the logs diagonally into 2.5 cm (1-inch) wide strips.

Step 11

Transfer the strips to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 12

Once cooled, dust the Raspberry Strippers lightly with powdered sugar before serving.
