Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened butter and powdered sugar. Beat them together until the mixture is creamy and light using a hand mixer or stand mixer.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture and blend until well incorporated.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond flour, cornstarch, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until a smooth dough forms. The mixture should be cohesive but not too sticky.
Transfer the dough into a piping bag fitted with a large star nozzle.
Pipe small star-shaped mounds onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 1 inch apart.
Using your fingertip, gently press the center of each biscuit to make a slight indentation for the jam.
Fill each indentation with a small amount of your chosen jam.
Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden.
Allow the biscuits to cool on the baking tray for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve the Kurabye Biscuits with tea or coffee and enjoy!
