- Prepare the Oven and Baking Sheet: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
- Cream the Butter and Sugars: In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar using an electric mixer on medium speed until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Add the Extracts: Mix in the vanilla extract and almond extract until well combined.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, ground almonds, baking powder, and salt.
- Mix Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the dry mixture to the butter mixture, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the dough should be crumbly yet hold together.
- Chill the Dough: Divide the dough in half, shape each half into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap, and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour or until firm.
- Roll out the Dough: On a floured surface, roll out one disk of dough to about ¼ inch thick. Use cookie cutters of your choice to cut out shapes. Remember to cut out an equal number of tops and bottoms, and for half of them, use a smaller cutter in the center to make the cut-out design.
- Transfer to Baking Sheets: Place the cut-out cookies on the prepared baking sheets, ensuring there is enough space between them.
- Bake the Cookies: Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until they are lightly golden around the edges. Keep a close eye on them to avoid over-baking.
- Cool the Cookies: Once baked, remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the trays for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Assemble the Cookies: Once the cookies are completely cooled, spread a thin layer of raspberry jam on the flat side of the cookies that do not have the cut-out and top them with the cut-out cookies. Dust the finished cookies with powdered sugar if desired.

Cooking Instructions:
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt until fully combined. Set aside.
- Cream Butter and Sugars: In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to cream together the softened unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Beat on medium speed until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add Egg and Vanilla: Add in the egg, vanilla extract, and red food coloring. Beat until everything is well combined and the mixture turns a uniform red color.
- Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring on low speed until just combined. Don’t overmix; the dough should be soft and slightly sticky.
- Chill the Dough: Divide the dough into two equal portions. Shape each portion into a disk and wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to help the dough firm up.
- Roll Out the Dough: After chilling, take one disk of dough and roll it out on a lightly floured surface to about ¼ inch thick.
- Cut Out Shapes: Use cookie cutters to cut out shapes for both the tops and bottoms of the cookies. For half of the cookies, use a smaller cookie cutter to create a center shape (window) for the tops.
- Bake the Cookies: Place the cut-out cookies onto the prepared baking sheets and bake them in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes, until set. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Make the Cream Cheese Filling: In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until creamy and smooth.
- Assemble the Cookies: Once the cookies are completely cooled, spread a generous amount of cream cheese filling on the flat side of the bottom cookie, then place the top cookie with the center cut-out to create a window effect. If desired, dust with powdered sugar before serving.
