Belgian Raspberry Cookie Recipe
The Belgian Cookie Recipe is the absolute Best Raspberry Cookie Recipe in the world! Although usually made in round shapes, these amazing cookies can be cut in any shape you like. For my daughter's Wedding Reception we included Belgian Cookies cut into the shape of a heart. I have included a picture of this heart shaped cookie on this page with the Belgian Cookie Recipe.
Also, as you can see, instead of a piece of candied cherry on top, we made icing flowers, and a candied pearl for the centre. They were a real hit at the Reception! The possibilities and themes are endless - be creative and make your own design!

Ingredients
COOKIES
1 cup corn starch
1 cup icing sugar
2 cups cake & pastry flour
1 1/2 cups butter ("room temp.")
raspberry jam
ICING
2 1/2 cups icing sugar
1/4 cup (approx.) hot water
1/2 tbsp. butter
3/4 tbsp. lemon juice
Directions for Cookies
Cream butter and icing sugar.
Add flour and corn starch to above mixture and cream together.
Make sure ingredients are uniformly mixed in.
Roll out cookie dough to about 1/4" thickness.
Cut out shapes using a cookie cutter.
Bake cookies on a cookie sheet at 350° F for approx. 10 minutes. Do not over bake. The cookies are done just before the edges start to turn brown.
When cool, put raspberry jam on the bottom side of one cookie, and place another cookie on top of the jam (top sides of cookies on outsides).
Allow cookies to sit till they are "glued" together with the jam.
When cookies are totally cooled, ice with prepared icing and add a piece of candied cherry (or other garnish).
Directions for Icing
Cream the icing sugar and butter together, and add the lemon juice.
Slowly add the hot water, using just enough to make a thin, spreadable icing.
ENJOY! Guard these Belgian Cookies because they will not stay in your kitchen for long!! Soon you will be wanting to take come back to this Raspberry Cookie Recipe and make another batch!
