How to Make Jam Drop Cookies

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened butter, 1 ½ cups granulated sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until light and fluffy.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Stir in ½ cup jam or jelly of your choice (strawberry, raspberry, etc.).
  6. Drop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
  7. Using your finger or a small spoon, gently make an indentation in the center of each cookie.
  8. Fill each indentation with a small amount of additional jam or jelly.
  9. Bake for 10-13 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown. Start checking at 10 minutes.
  10. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy!
