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.
