Jam Butter Cookies
Ingredients
  • 3/4 cup butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 2 egg yolks
  • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup fruit preserves, any flavor
Instructions
1
Collect all the necessary items, including food and baking supplies.
2
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (or 190 degrees Celsius, if using a different scale).
3
Combine butter, sugar, and egg yolks in a medium-sized bowl using an electric mixer until they come together in a smooth, even mixture; then gradually incorporate flour into the blend until it reaches a soft, cohesive consistency.
4
Shape the dough into small, rounded balls; place these balls onto ungreased baking sheets about 2 inches apart from one another. Use your thumb or a similar-sized utensil to create a small indentation in the center of each cookie; fill this cavity with 1/2 teaspoon of preserves.
5
Place the cookies in the preheated oven and bake until they have turned a golden brown color on the bottom, taking anywhere from 8 to 10 minutes.
6
Once done, carefully remove the cookies from the baking sheets and allow them to cool on wire racks.
