In medium bowl, combine flour and salt.Using a pastry cutter, cut in butter until mixture is crumbly. Add sour cream, first stirring and then kneading with your hands.
Dough will be slightly sticky. Shape dough into a ball, cover and refrigerate 1 hour. Remove dough from refrigerator and let sit for 15 minutes.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Divide dough into 2 equal parts. Roll out on lightly floured surface to 1/8 inch thickness, adding more flour, if needed if dough becomes too sticky.
Cut out with 2-3 inch round cookie cutter. Place about 1/2 to 1 teaspoon, depending on the size of your circles, of raspberry jam on center of circle.

Fold in half and gently pat edges together to form a seam. If a little filling oozes out during baking, that's alright, you'll be able to tell what filling is inside.
Bake in preheated oven 20 to 25 minutes until golden brown. Pipe icing over cooled cookies decoratively using a pastry bag or a zip-lock bag with a corner snipped off.
