Tips:

Use fresh, ripe blackberries for the best flavor.
If you don't have blackberries, you can substitute another type of berry, such as raspberries or blueberries.
Be sure to drain the blackberries well before using them, so that the cookies don't become too wet.
Don't overmix the dough, or the cookies will be tough.
Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking, so that the cookies will hold their shape.
Bake the cookies until they are just set, or they will be dry.
Let the cookies cool completely before filling them with jam, or the jam will melt and make the cookies soggy.
