Baku kurabye

30 minutes
Baku kurabye is a hit of Soviet confectioneries, a universal type of cookie for the entire Mediterranean and Middle East. The distinctive feature of Baku kurabye is the presence of jam in the center of a shortcrust pastry rose . The dough itself is not too sweet according to this recipe, because the jam, which is already cloying in itself, is ultimately responsible for this sweet taste.
