How to Make Jam Jelly Filled Butter Cookies
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Cover the dough and refrigerate for at least 3 hours, or preferably overnight.
- Roll the dough into 1-inch balls. Make a slight indentation in the center of each ball with your thumb.
- Fill each indentation with about ½ teaspoon of your favorite jam or jelly.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
