This was publish in the Baking Sheet of King Arthur Flour recipe booklet publication. It was a recipe makeover of an original recipe that belonged to Valerie Gardner of Idaho. They are oatmeal cookies with a spoonful of jam in the middle, covered with more oatmeal cookie dough. The jam peeks out of the center of the oatmeal cookie.

Yield 48 cookies, 20 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 cup unsalted butter
1/2 cup vegetable shortening
1 cup packed brown sugar
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1/4 cup water
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
2 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 cups quick-cooking rolled oats
2/3 cup red raspberry preserves

Scoop by the tablespoon onto baking sheets, make a dent on top with your thumb (or the top of the almond extract bottle, which is the perfect size). Place 1 tsp of raspberry preserves on each cookie. Top with a small amount of cookie dough (1/2 to 1 level teaspoonful, a blob about the size of a peanut M&M candy).

I'm allergic to berries, so I can't eat these cookies. :(
