Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, use a stand or handheld mixer to cream the unsalted butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the vanilla extract and the egg to the butter mixture, then mix until fully combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a soft dough forms.
Scoop 1 tablespoon of dough and roll it into a ball. Use your thumb to press an indent into the center of the ball and place it onto the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining dough.
Spoon about 1/2 teaspoon of strawberry jam into each cookie indent.
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 13-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Dust the cooled cookies with powdered sugar before serving.
