Strawberry Thumbprint Cookies


Preheat the oven to 350F and line a sheet pan with parchment paper.

Melt 3/4 cup of Butter in a mixing bowl and add 2/3 cups of Sugar to it. Cream together with a hand mixer or a spatula. Add an Egg, a tsp of Vanilla Extract and mix well.

Add 1/2 tsp of Salt, 1/2 tsp of Baking Powder and 1 3/4 cups of All Purpose Flour to the mixture and mix well until incorporated. Make an inch balls with the dough and keep aside.

Take 1/2 cup of Sugar in a bowl. Roll the dough balls in sugar and place on the prepared sheet pan about 2 inches apart. Make a small indentation with your thumb on the balls. Fill each hole with Strawberry Jam and bake the cookies for 12-14 minutes or until the edges are browned.

Remove from oven and let them cool.
