Slowly add flours to butter mixture, beating until dough just comes together. Remove dough from bowl, shape into a disk, wrap tightly with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 2 hours. Preheat oven to 350\u00c2\u00b0. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper; set aside. On a lightly floured surface, roll dough to just thinner than 1\/4 inch. Using various sizes of heart-shaped cutters, cut about 3 dozen cookies, rerolling dough only once, if necessary. Carefully transfer cookies to baking sheets; bake for 7 to 10 minutes, or until edges just turn golden. Cool on baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. In a small bowl, sift together confectioners\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 sugar and ground raspberries, if desired. Dust cookies lightly with sugar.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>1 1\/4 sticks softened unsalted butter 1\/2 cup sugar 1 large egg at room temperature 1 1\/2 tsp. lemon zest 1\/2 tsp. vanilla extract 2 cups sifted all-purpose flour 2 T. toasted almond flour 1 cup confectioners\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 sugar 3 T. ground freeze-dried raspberries (optional) In a large bowl and using an electric mixer at medium-high speed, beat butter and sugar together until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes.
