Ingredients

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

Method

1
In a mixer, cream together the butter and sugar.
2
Once creamed, add the egg and vanilla. Beat until smooth.
3
In a mixing bowl, stir together the flour and baking powder.
4
Add flour to creamed mixture. Beat on low speed until 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.
