Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened
2/3 cup sugar
1/2 tsp. almond extract
2 cups flour
1/2 cup seedless raspberry jam
GLAZE:
1 cup powdered sugar
1/2 tsp. almond extract
2-3 tsp. water

Steps:

  • 1. In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in extract; gradually add flour until dough forms a ball. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour or until dough is easy to handle. Roll into 1" balls. Place 1" apart on ungreased baking sheets. Using the end of a wooden spoon handle, make an indentation in the center. Fill with jam. Bake at 350° for 14-18 minutes or until edges are lightly browned. Remove to wire racks to cool. Spoon additional jam into cookies if desired. Combine confectioners' sugar, extract and enough water to achieve drizzling consistency; drizzle over cookies.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cookies turned out dry and crumbly. I think I might have overbaked them.

I had a hard time finding raspberry preserves, so I used strawberry preserves instead. The cookies still turned out great.

These cookies were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I would probably cut back on the sugar next time.
