Ingredients

1/2 cup butter, softened

1 cup granulated sugar

3/4 cup packed brown sugar

1/3 cup cocoa powder

1/2 tsp. baking soda

1/4 tsp. salt

2 tsp. vanilla

1 large egg

1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour

1 recipe Raspberry Filling, [Desserts/raspberry_filling]

Directions

Step 1

Line two baking sheets with parchment paper; set aside. In large mixing bowl beat butter on medium 30 seconds. Add sugars; beat well. Beat in cocoa, baking soda, and salt. Add vanilla, beat in egg. Beat in as much flour as you can; stir in remaining by hand.

Step 2

Divide dough in three portions. Shape each Piece in a 8-inch log about 1-1/2 inches in diameter. (For small cookies, shape dough in 9-inch logs about 1 inch in diameter). Wrap in plastic wrap or waxed paper. Freeze 2 to 3 hours or until firm enough to slice.

Step 3

Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Cut logs in 1/4-inch slices. Place 1 inch apart on prepared baking sheets. Bake 8 to 10 minutes or just until edges and tops of cookies are firm. Transfer to wire rack; cool completely.

Step 4

Spread the flat side of half the large cookies with 2 teaspoon Raspberry Filling (use 1 teaspoon filling for small cookies). Top with remaining cookies, flat sides to filling. Makes 22 large/30 small sandwiches.
