Recipe adapted from The Charms of Tea: Reminiscences and Recipes
Ingredients
- 1 cup softened butter
- ⅓ cup sugar
- 1 egg yolk
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- 2½ cups paleo baking flour
- 2/3 cup strawberry jam
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and sugar with an electric mixer until fluffy. Next, beat in the egg yolk and vanilla extract. Mix in the flour gradually at low speed. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for 2 hours.
- Preheat oven to 375°. Roll dough into 1 inch balls and place them 2 inches apart on ungreased baking sheets. (If the dough becomes too soft, refrigerate for 10-15 minutes.) Indent centers of each ball gently with your thumb and smooth out cracks on the edges with your fingers. With a small spoon, place jam on each cookie.
- Bake the cookies for 13-15 minutes or until the bottom of cookies are golden brown. Once done, let the cookies cool on the rack.
