Ingredients
  

For the Cookie Dough
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp baking powder
For the Filling
  • 1/2 cup peach preserves
  • 1 cup heavy cream

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, beat together the softened butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy. Add the vanilla extract and mix again.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together the flour and baking powder. Gradually add these dry ingredients to the butter mixture, mixing until a dough forms.
  4. Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls. Place them onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Allow them to cool completely on a wire rack.
Assembly
  1. While the cookies are cooling, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form.
  2. Once the cookies are cool, take one cookie and spread a layer of peach preserves on the flat side. Pipe or dollop the whipped cream over the preserves, then top with another cookie, flat side down. Repeat until all cookies are filled.
Serving
  1. Dust with powdered sugar, if desired, and enjoy your creamy peach treats!

Notes

If desired, substitute peach preserves with another fruit preserve like apricot or strawberry. Ensure cookies cool completely before filling to avoid a gooey mess. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or freeze the cookies without filling for up to a month.
