Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 cup butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon grated orange peel
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
  • 2 cups Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • Powdered sugar, if desired
  • 1/4 cup raspberry jam (or other favorite flavor)

Instruction

  • In large bowl, beat butter with electric mixer on medium speed until creamy; add granulated sugar, beating until blended. Add egg, orange peel and vanilla; beat until blended. On low speed, beat in flour and salt until blended. Wrap dough in plastic wrap. Refrigerate 1 hour.
  • Heat oven to 350°F. Line cookie sheet with cooking parchment paper. Shape dough into 1-inch balls. On cookie sheet, place balls 2 inches apart. Press thumb into center of each cookie to make indentation, but do not press all the way to the cookie sheet.
  • Bake 12 to 15 minutes or until light golden brown. Quickly remake indentations with end of wooden spoon, if necessary. Immediately remove from cookie sheet to cooling rack; cool completely. Sprinkle with powdered sugar. Fill each thumbprint with about 1/4 measuring teaspoon of jam.
