Ingredients

  • 1 cup (240 g ) soft butter
  • 1 cup (240 g) white sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla
  • 1½ cup (360 g) all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ cup (120 g) jam (raspberry/strawberry)

Directions

1

In a mixer , cream together the butter and sugar.

2

Once creamed, add the egg and vanilla. Beat until it is smooth.

3

In a mixing bowl , stir together the flour and baking powder.

4

Add flour to creamed mixture. Beat on low speed until it is thoroughly combined.

5

Portion out the dough into round, firm balls. Place on sheet pan . Using the end of a wooden spoon, press down on the dough ball to form wells.

6

Fill each well with jam. Do not overfill the well, as they will overflow and burn. For the same reason, keep the edges of the dough clean.

7

Bake at 300°F (160°C) for 22–24 minutes, until it is light golden brown.
