JAM COOKIES

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ingredients

80g soft butter
1/3 cup caster sugar
30ml milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla essence
1 cup self raising flour
1/3 cup custard powder
Strawberry jam (about 100g)

 

Heat the oven to 180 Celsius and line 2 baking sheets with grease proof paper  or spray and cook while you prepare the dough.

Place the softened butter and the caster sugar in a bowl and cream together until the mixture is light. You can use an electric beater for this.

Add the milk and vanilla essence, beat with your electric beater on medium to combine well.

Now add the custard powder and flour and mix again into a soft dough.

Take heaped tablespoons of dough, roll them into little balls and place on the baking sheets. Press your thumb or the back of a wooden spoon into the center of each ball to form a small well.

Fill each well with jam and into the oven for 15 minutes or so.

Thats it…remove from the oven and let them cool slightly before transferring to a wire rack.
