Linzer keks potiče iz Austrije i svoje ime duguje gradu Lincu. Recept za Linzer tortu, od koje je ovaj keks izveden, smatra se jednim od najstarijih sačuvanih recepata za torte u svetu — prvi put je zapisan još u 17. veku.
Linzer keks je zapravo minijaturna verzija te čuvene torte. Pravi se od prhkog testa bogatog bademima ili lešnicima, začinjenog cimetom, a između dva sloja stavlja se sloj džema, najčešće od malina ili ribizle. Gornji keks obično ima izrezan prozorčić kroz koji se vidi voćni fil, što mu daje prepoznatljiv i šarmantan izgled. Danas je Linzer keks popularan širom Evrope, naročito tokom praznika, i smatra se jednom od omiljenih tradicionalnih božićnih poslastica.

Linzer Cookies
Linzer cookies originate from Austria and are named after the city of Linz. The recipe is derived from the famous Linzer Torte, one of the oldest known cake recipes in the world, dating back to the 17th century.
Linzer cookies are essentially a miniature version of the Linzer Cake. They are made from a buttery, nut-based shortcrust pastry typically using ground almonds or hazelnuts and flavored with warm spices like cinnamon. The cookies are sandwiched with a layer of fruit jam, most commonly raspberry or red currant, and the top cookie usually has a small cut out window that reveals the jam inside, giving it a charming, festive appearance. Today, Linzer cookies are beloved throughout Europe and are especially popular during the holiday season as a traditional Christmas treat.
Ingredients
150 g butter
100 g icing sugar
1 tsp vanilla bean paste
pinch of salt
1 lemon, zest
1 egg yolk
1 egg
350 g flour
You will also need Jam (apricot or plum) Method 1. Using a mixer, combine the softened butter with sugar for a minute or two. Add the vanilla paste, salt, lemon zest. Whilst adding the egg and egg yolk, also add a couple tablespoons of flour in order to properly incorporate the mixture. Then, using your hands, add the rest of the flour to form a soft dough. Wrap in cling film and leave in the fridge to cool for 1 hour or overnight. 2. Preheat the oven to 170°C (fan). Cut out half of the cookies with a round cookie cutter, and the other half with a cutter of your choice - I used a smiley face cookie cutter of around 4.5 cm. Place them onto prepared baking trays and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until they begin to colour. They should remain mostly pale. Leave to cool. 3. Dust the top (smiley face) cookies with icing sugar. Heat the jam for 10 seconds in the microwave to make it more spreadable, then use it to stick the top cookies onto the round cookies.
Tip; Dust the top cookies with icing sugar before sticking the cookies together. This avoids icing sugar getting into the jam, and gives a neater finish!
