Ingredients

  • 180 g butter softened to room temp
  • 225 g caster sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 300 g plain flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • jam (any flavour)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 180 degrees celsius (fan forced).

  • Place the cookie balls onto the baking tray and use your knuckle or finger to press an indent into the mixture (not the whole way through!).
  • Use a teaspoon to place a very small amount of jam into each indent (approximately ⅛th of a teaspoon).

Notes

RECIPE NOTES & TIPS
  • Choose any flavour of jam you like!
  • Only add a TINY amount of jam - otherwise it will overflow.
  • Create a deep hole (not the whole way through) for the jam to go in using your knuckle.
  • Chill the dough for a minimum of 30 minutes before baking (this is help stop over-spreading)
  • Do NOT overcook the biscuits, they will firm on cooling. Overcooking the biscuits will cause the jam to spread.
  • Store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
  • Freeze for up to 3 months. Allow to defrost at room temperature before consuming.
