Vanilice are bite-sized Serbian Vanilla Cookies that are seriously addicting. With a nutty sweetness and a soft jam filling, they're the perfect recipe to add to your next cookie platter! For best results, this dough needs to be chilled for 2-3 hours before cutting and baking. These cookies are traditionally made 1-2 days before serving, to allow the flavors to meld together and the cookies to soften.
