The Disneyland Monte Cristo Sandwich is a beloved classic, featuring layers of turkey, ham, and Swiss cheese between slices of bread, dipped in a batter and deep-fried to golden perfection. It's then dusted with powdered sugar and served with raspberry preserves for a delightful sweet and savory flavor combination.

Ingredients: 6 slices white bread. 6 slices turkey breast. 6 slices ham. 6 slices Swiss cheese. 1 egg. 1/4 cup milk. 1 cup all-purpose flour. 1 tablespoon baking powder. 1/2 teaspoon salt. Oil for frying. Powdered sugar for dusting. Raspberry preserves for dipping.

Instructions: Assemble sandwiches by layering one slice of bread, turkey, ham, and Swiss cheese, then another slice of bread. Cut sandwiches diagonally to form triangles. In a bowl, whisk together egg and milk. In another bowl, mix flour, baking powder, and salt. Heat oil in a deep fryer to 365F 185C. Dip each sandwich triangle in the egg mixture, then coat with the flour mixture. Fry the sandwiches in the hot oil until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove sandwiches and drain on paper towels. Dust with powdered sugar and serve with raspberry preserves for dipping.

Delight your taste buds with these heavenly thumbprint cookies featuring a buttery almond base, filled with sweet raspberry preserves, and topped with luscious white chocolate and sliced almonds.

Ingredients: 1 cup unsalted butter, softened. 3/4 cup granulated sugar. 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract. 2 cups all-purpose flour. 1/2 cup almond flour. 1/4 teaspoon salt. 1/2 cup white chocolate chips. 1/2 cup raspberry preserves. 1/4 cup sliced almonds.

Instructions: Preheat your oven to 350F 175C and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add the vanilla extract and mix until well combined. Gradually add the all-purpose flour, almond flour, and salt. Mix until the dough comes together. Shape the dough into 1-inch balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Use your thumb or the back of a rounded teaspoon to make an indentation in the center of each cookie. Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden. Remove the cookies from the oven and immediately fill the indentations with white chocolate chips while the cookies are still warm. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Once the cookies have cooled, spoon a small amount of raspberry preserves into the center of each cookie. Sprinkle sliced almonds on top of the raspberry preserves. Let the raspberry preserves set for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy these delicious White Chocolate Raspberry Almond Thumbprint Cookies!
