\nThese jam cookies sandwiches are made from basic Vanilla cookies. They are a popular teatime snacks and quite versatile too. I am sharing a quick and easy recipe for these cookies with the option of sandwiching with jam of your choice. <\/p>\n
This is such a nostalgic childhood recipe. Every kid growing up in 80s and 90s had these sandwich cookies in one form or the other.<\/p>\n

FAQs<\/p>\n
Can I make vanilla cookies without eggs?Yes, there are many eggless recipes available for vanilla cookies, catering to individuals with dietary preferences or restrictions.You can try out my Eggless Marble Cookie recipe if you are looking for eggless cookies.<\/p>\n
Can I freeze vanilla cookies?I do not recommend freezing vanilla cookies as they become a lil soggy once defrosted due to condensation. I would rather freeze unbaked cookies and bake them straightaway in the hot oven.<\/p>\n
Serving Suggestions<\/p>\n
These cookies taste delicious on its own or when sandwiched with jam of your choice. <\/p>\n
These are perfect homemade snacks for kids, lunch boxes or simply with any tea or coffee for that little dessert.<\/p>\n
You can also try out the homemade strawberry jam on the blog to use with this recipe.<\/p>\n
Substitutions & Variations<\/p>\n
You can substitute apricot jam with any jam of your choice. <\/p>\n
You can also use ganache or caramel to sandwich them.<\/p>\n
Alternatively, you can dip half the cookie in melted chocolate and sprinkle with crushed nuts for variation. <\/p>\n
Storage and Make Ahead<\/p>\n
You can store these cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. <\/p>\n
To store for an extended period, you can freeze cookies after cooling them completely (and before sandwiching with jam) in an airtight container or resealable freezer bag. Let them thaw at room temperature before serving.<\/p>\n
However my preferred method is freezing unbaked cookies to avoid the slight sogginess due to condensation.<\/p>\n
