Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 cup butter (2 sticks, at room temperature)
  • 2/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 egg yolks
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • Jam

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
  • Beat together butter and sugar on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 2 to 3 minutes. Beat in egg yolks and vanilla extract.
  • Add flour and salt and mix until incorporated and dough comes together in a ball. If desired, chill for 30 minutes.
  • Form dough into 1-inch balls (make sure they’re perfectly round), and arrange on prepared cookie sheet. Use a 1/2 tsp. measure to create perfectly circular craters in the center.
  • Bake cookies for 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Remove cookie sheet from oven. If indentations look shallow, further define them again, and fill each with a bit of jam.
  • Bake for an additional 3 to 4 minutes, or until jam melts slightly and edges of cookies are lightly golden.
