Always a popular choice in my annual cookie boxes. You really can use any kind of jam but my favorite is Spread the Love Tayberry is hands down my favorite.
Ingredients:
1 1/3 c flour
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 c sugar
1/2 c butter, soften
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Jam
Powder sugar for dusting
Directions:
Place flour, baking powder and salt in a bowl and mix.
Beat butter and sugar together in a separate bowl until fluffy.
Then add egg and vanilla
Gradually add the flour mixture
Form dough into 2 disc.
Refrigerate for 2 hours
Preheat oven to 375
Roll out one of the dough disc (leave the other in frig til your ready to use it)
Cut dough into shapes, use a smaller cookie cutter to cut the center out of half.
Place cookies on a parchment paper lined sheet, about 1 1/2" apart
Bake for 7-9 mins
If the cut out centers fill in a bit during baking use the small cookie cutter to re cut the shapes for crisp lines.
Once cookies are COMPLETELY cool. Add a teaspoon of jam to the the flat side of the whole cookie and sandwich together.
Dust cookies with powder sugar.
