BROWNED BUTTER COOKIE JAM PIES

Steps:

• For the browned butter: Add the butter to a medium skillet over medium heat. Cook, swirling the skillet to keep the butter moving around, until it melts and bubbles up, 3 to 4 minutes. When the butter is a medium golden brown, remove the skillet from the heat (it will continue browning in the skillet over the next 30 seconds or so!). Pour the butter and any solids into a bowl and let cool completely, about 30 minutes. Measure out 1/3 cup for the cookies.
• For the cookies: To a mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, add the sugar, regular butter, orange zest, vanilla and 1/3 cup browned butter and cream together thoroughly. Add the egg and beat until light and fluffy. Mix in the milk.
• Sift together the flour, baking powder and salt in a bowl, then blend it into the creamed mixture. Divide the dough in half, slightly flatten between 2 sheets of waxed paper and refrigerate for 1 hour (or freeze for 20 minutes). The dough needs to be chilled.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 24-cup mini muffin tin with cooking spray.
• Pinch off pieces of dough and press into the base of the muffin tin cups to make shells. Bake until golden brown, about 12 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes.
• Remove the bases from the tins, spoon 1 teaspoon raspberry jam onto each and serve.

Put mixer on low speed, gradually add flour, and beat until mixture pulls away from the side of the bowl. Divide the dough in half, wrap in waxed paper, and refrigerate for 2 hours.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Sprinkle surface where you will roll out dough with powdered sugar. Remove 1 wrapped pack of dough from refrigerator at a time, sprinkle rolling pin with powdered sugar, and roll out dough to 1/4-inch thick. Move the dough around and check underneath frequently to make sure it is not sticking. If dough has warmed during rolling, place cold cookie sheet on top for 10 minutes to chill. Cut into desired shape, place at least 1-inch apart on greased baking sheet, parchment, or silicone baking mat, and bake for 7 to 9 minutes or until cookies are just beginning to turn brown around the edges, rotating cookie sheet halfway through baking time. Let sit on baking sheet for 2 minutes after removal from oven and then move to complete cooling on wire rack. Serve as is or ice as desired. Store in airtight container for up to 1 week.

BROWN-EDGE COOKIES

Using a stand mixer with the paddle attachment or an electric hand mixer, cream butter and sugar on medium-high until light and fluffy, 3 to 4 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl. Add egg and vanilla. Beat on medium until incorporated, about 1 minute.
• Add 1 cup flour and the salt and beat on low to just combine. Scrape down the sides of the bowl. Add the remaining 2 cups flour and beat on low until incorporated. Scrape down the bowl, then beat on medium for 30 seconds just until no flour streaks remain.
• Drop heaping tablespoons of dough onto 2 parchment-lined baking sheets, spacing them 3 inches apart as the cookies spread quite a bit while baking.
• Bake 2 sheets at a time, rotating the pans halfway through, until the edges are lightly browned and the centers are slightly puffed, 10 to 12 minutes. Repeat with the rest of the dough.
• Cool on the pans on wire racks for 10 minutes, then transfer cookies to the rack to cool completely. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for 5 days, or in the freezer for up to 6 months.
