DREIDEL LINZER TARTS
INGREDIENTS:

- 1&1/2 c sugar
- 1&1/4 tsp salt

Cooking steps
Step 1
Preheat oven to 180°c (350f). Cream margarine, sugar and salt in stand mixer. Scrape down sides. Add in eggs one at a time while mixing. Add extracts and flour. Mix until just combined. No refrigerating! Roll out between 2 pieces parchment paper (I like them a drop thicker. Like 1/4” thick). Use large dreidel cutter to cut out big dreidels. Place on baking sheet. Place on parchment lined baking sheet. On half of the large dreidels use the smaller dreidel cutter o cut out the center. Remove tiny inside dreidel and bake separately (save them for snacking!)

Step 2
7-9 min. Cool on pan for 5 min to set. Transfer to cooling rack to cool completely. Spread jelly or chocolate spread over large whole dreidel cookies. Dust a generous layer of powdered sugar over cut out dreidels and then place one cut out cookie on top of each whole cookie and voila…dreidel linzer tart!
