This time of year, it’s all about the cookies!
I like to make a mix of old favorites and new recipes every year.
It’s nice to have the old standbys and still try out new recipes to find new favorites.
This Raspberry Tassies recipe is a little different than most cookies.
Tassies are considered cookies, but they are almost like little mini pies.
These tassies have a rich, flaky shell and are filled with raspberry fruit filling (pie filling). Since the fruit filling is full of great chunks of fruit in it, so I prefer it to using jam (if you’re looking for a great recipe using jam, check out my jam bar recipe).
The raspberry tassies are on the less sweet side, so I topped them with a fresh raspberry and a little whipped cream to dress them up and make them just a touch sweeter.

No sugar in the dough?
Kate says
No, the dough is very similar to a pie dough and has no sugar in it.
Donna Cardone says
How long will these keep and do they need to be refrigerated?
Kate says
They are best the day they’re made, but they will keep for about 1-2 days in the fridge. I think they hold up better if they’re refrigerated. Hope that helps!

Hi I’m new to baking . What if I don’t have a mini muffin tin?
Kate says
Hi! I haven’t tried these tassies in a full-sized muffin tin, and they need the structure of a muffin cup to help them hold their shape as they bake. Unfortunately, I’m not sure what to suggest in place of a mini muffin tin.

You have flour in your ingredients list but you forget to include it in step one.
