Description

Delightful cookies with a crispy edge and a chewy center, filled with tangy raspberry jam.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup raspberry jam

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes.
  3. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until smooth.
  4. Mix in the flour and salt until just combined.
  5. Roll the dough into small balls, about one inch in diameter.
  6. Create an indentation in the center of each ball using your thumb.
  7. Fill each indentation with raspberry jam, being careful not to overfill.
  8. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until edges are lightly golden.
  9. Cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes

For a different flavor, substitute raspberry jam with apricot or strawberry jam. Dough can be refrigerated for up to 3 days or frozen for longer storage.
