Jam-Filled Walnut Cookies
Ingredients
  • 1 large egg, separated, divided
  • 1/2 cup butter, softened
  • 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped walnuts
  • 2/3 cup any flavor fruit jam
Instructions
1
Acquire necessary components.
2
Preheat the oven to 300 degrees Fahrenheit (150 degrees Celsius). Coat two baking trays with a non-stick cooking spray and put them aside for now.
3
In one small bowl, thoroughly mix egg white until it becomes smooth. Place chopped walnuts in another small container.
4
Using an electric mixer, combine softened butter, brown sugar, and egg yolk in a mixing bowl until they become light and airy, taking approximately 2 minutes to achieve this.
5
Gradually add flour, vanilla extract, and salt; mix until the ingredients are well incorporated.
6
Form dough into 1 1/2-inch balls. Dip each ball in the egg white mixture, then coat it evenly with chopped walnuts. Place these walnut-coated balls 2 inches apart on the prepared baking trays.
7
Bake in the preheated oven until they start to rise slightly, taking around 5 minutes.
8
Take cookies out of the oven. Using your thumb, gently press an indentation in the center of each cookie to create a small well. Fill this well with jam until it's completely filled.
9
Put the cookies back in the oven and bake until they're set, taking approximately 8 minutes to achieve this.
10
Remove cookies from the oven and transfer them to wire racks to cool completely.
