How to Make Jelly Centered Sugar Cookies
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar 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.
- Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to about 1/4 inch thickness.
- Use a 2-3 inch cookie cutter to cut out the cookies.
- Place half of the cookies onto the prepared baking sheets.
- Spoon about 1 teaspoon of jelly onto the center of each cookie.
- Top with the remaining cookies.
- Bake for 8-10 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.
