• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats.
• Whisk the flour, baking powder and salt together in a bowl.
• In another bowl, whip the butter and the sugar with a hand-held mixer until fluffy, about 5 minutes. Beat in the egg and vanilla until just combined. Slowly beat in the dry ingredients in 2 additions, mixing just until incorporated.
• Scoop the dough into 1-inch balls with a cookie or ice cream scoop and roll in sugar. Place about 2-inches apart on the prepared baking sheets. Press a thumbprint into the center of each ball, about 1/2-inch deep. Fill each indentation with about 3/4 teaspoon jam.
• Bake cookies until the edges are golden, about 15 minutes. (For even color, rotate the pans from top to bottom about halfway through baking.) Cool cookies on the baking sheets. Serve.
• Store cookies in a tightly sealed container for up to 5 days.

BUTTERY JAM THUMBPRINT COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325°F with rack on middle position. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with paddle attachment on high speed, beat butter and sugar until creamy and light, 2-3 minutes (do not rush this part, as it will determine how your dough turns out.) Add vanilla and salt, scraping down bowl as needed. Switch to medium-low and gently mix in flour, just until combined. Dough should be somewhat sticky. Form into a ball shape, cover, and chill 30-60 minutes.
• Roll tablespoonfuls of dough into 1-inch balls. Place dough balls on parchment-lined baking sheets or silicone baking mats. Press down the center of each ball with handle-end of a wooden spatula or finger, making a deep well in the middle - deep but not too wide (it helps to hold the dough ball in palm of hand while forming the well with your finger.)
• Fill cookie centers generously with jam/preserves. I use either a very small spoon or a piping bag. Bake 20-25* minutes or until golden brown and puffy. Let cool 5 min. on baking sheet, then gently transfer to finish cooling on wire rack.
• When cookies are completely cooled, dust with confectioners' sugar. Cookies can be kept in airtight container at room temp for a few days.

BUTTER AND JAM COOKIES RECIPE

Steps:

• Method: Preheat oven to 180C / 350F. Sift and mix the cake flour and rice flour well. Set aside. Beat the butter and icing sugar until pale and fluffy with an electric mixer. Scrape down the butter from the sides of the bowl with a spatula if necessary. Beat in the egg yolks bit by bit. Don't add in one go because you don't want the butter mixture splits. Add salt and vanilla extract. Fold in the flour mixture in 3 batches with a spatula. Combine well. Transfer the batter into a piping bag. Pipe batter with your favourite pattern onto a lined baking tray. Or you might like to roll the batter into small balls, about 2.5 cm / 1 inch in size. Lightly press with your finger tip to make a well in the middle. Mix the jam with warm water well. Put into a plastic bag. Cut away a small tip at a corner. Drop a little bit in the middle. Or fill the hole of the small dough. Bake in the preheated oven for about 10 to 12 minutes. For the small balls, bake further 5 minutes or so, until golden brown on the bottom. Remove from the oven. Let cool on a wire rack completely. Enjoy!
