• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit

Food Processor Instructions

• Combine the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar in the food processor and pulse a few times to combine
• Add the diced butter and process until the mixture looks like sand and the butter is well incorporated.
• Mix the egg, milk, and vanilla extract in a separate bowl and pour into the food processor. Process until the mixture comes together into a dough. The mixture should hold together well and not stick to your hands. Add flour if too sticky and milk if too dry.

Hand Mixing instructions

• If making the mixture by hand, combine the dry ingredients in a large bowl and whisk to combine.
• Add the diced butter in and rub the butter into the dry ingredients until the butter is well incorporated and the mixture looks like fine crumbs.
• Beat the egg, vanilla extract and milk in a separate bowl and add to the flour and butter mixture.
• Using a butter knife, mix the ingredients together until a soft dough is formed. Add flour if the mixture is too sticky and milk if the mixture is too dry

Cookie Assembly

• Divide the dough into 16 pieces and shape each into a ball.
• Place each dough ball into a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving around 1-½" between the balls to allow for spreading during baking.
• Flour your thumb and press into the middle of each ball to create an indent, don't press all the way through
• Place a marble sized amount of jam in the indent of each cookie
• Bake for ten minutes at 400 degrees Fahrenheit, then reduce the temperature to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and bake for another 5 minutes until golden.
• Sprinkle sugar on top of the cookies and allow to cool for 5 minutes in the tray before transferring to a cooling rack to cool completely.
• Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
