Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams unsalted butter
- 100 grams granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 240 grams all-purpose flour
- 50 grams cornstarch
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 100 grams jam (e.g., raspberry, strawberry, or apricot)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugar together using an electric mixer until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Mix in the vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a soft, smooth dough forms.
Roll the dough into small balls, about 1 tablespoon each, and place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them approximately 2 inches apart.
Use your thumb or the back of a spoon to press a shallow indent in the center of each dough ball.
Fill each indentation with about 1/4 teaspoon of your chosen jam, taking care not to overfill.
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
