This week's assignment was Rose's Lemon Jammies--lovely buttery cookies sandwiched with one of several possible fillings. Included in the book is a recipe for Lemon Neoclassic Buttercream. I haven't made the lemon version, but I love Rose's Neoclassic Buttercream!
I found this recipe to be very simple to make. The dough can be made in the food processor or with a mixer. I used my food processor and it took just a few minutes.

The simple, buttery dough is flavored with lemon zest and vanilla and well chilled before rolling.
Half of the cookies are cut again with a smaller circle to show the filling. I am using a large piping tip for this.
The deceptively plain looking cookies are cooling on a rack.
Filling the cookies with Rose's Lemon Curd (the Cake Bible p. 340). There might be something more heavenly than tart, brightly flavored lemon curd on a sunny spring day, but I couldn't think of anything while finishing these cookies!
The finished cookies taste like sunshine! Rose's recipe indicates that they can also be filled with her Lemon Neoclassic Buttercream or jam, both of which sound delicious.
Definitely adding these cookies to the list of favorites!
