These cookies feature a buttery, tender dough infused with beet powder, sandwiched around a tart raspberry filling that contrasts beautifully with the sweet cookie base. They are perfect for gifting or enjoying during festive gatherings.

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This guarantees that your cookies bake perfectly once prepared.
