Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a heart-shaped pan to prevent sticking.
  2. In a stand mixer, mix room temperature butter, vegetable oil, granulated sugar, and powdered sugar until light and fluffy. Add the egg.
  3. Sift together flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt. Whisk to distribute leavening agents.
  4. Gradually add dry ingredients to the wet mixture, adding vanilla extract. Mix until just combined.
  5. Chill the dough in the refrigerator for about 10-15 minutes.
  6. Press the dough evenly into the greased pan, ensuring a smooth surface.
  7. Bake for 16-18 minutes, looking for golden edges. Cool for 10-15 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
  8. Beat together butter, vanilla, raspberry preserves, milk, and powdered sugar until smooth and creamy.
  9. Spread a layer of raspberry preserves on the cooled cookie, then frost with raspberry buttercream.
  10. Cut into heart-shaped pieces or squares and serve at room temperature.
