- 1½ cups all-purpose flour, plus more for parchment
- 1 cup whole-wheat graham flour
- ½ cup toasted wheat germ
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¾ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 8 ounces (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
- ⅔ cup packed light-brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 ounces bittersweet chocolate, melted
- ½ cup raspberry jam
- Whisk together flours, wheat germ, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt.
- Beat butter and sugar with a mixer on medium speed until pale and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Beat in honey. Scrape down sides of bowl. Add flour mixture, and beat until combined.
- Turn out dough, and divide in half. Shape dough into 2 balls. Wrap each in plastic, and refrigerate for 20 minutes. Roll out each ball into a rectangle (⅛- to ¼-inch thick) on a floured piece of parchment. Refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 350°. Using a fluted pie cutter, mark 24 rectangles (each 1½ by 2¾ inches) on each dough sheet, scoring but not cutting all the way through. Prick dough with a fork to create dotted lines. Freeze until firm, about 30 minutes.
- Transfer dough on parchment to baking sheets. Bake until golden brown, 17 to 19 minutes. Let cool on sheet. Break cookies at perforations.
- Transfer chocolate to a resealable plastic bag. Cut a tiny opening in 1 corner. Transfer half the cookies to a wire rack, and drizzle with chocolate. Refrigerate until set, about 20 minutes. Spread 1 teaspoon jam on underside of each remaining cookie; top with decorated cookies.
Makes 2 dozen sandwiches.
