Thumbprint cookies are the easiest and most delicious cookies I've ever made.

It's even nicer than those chocolate chip or m&m cookies I've made before.

Why do I say they're the easiest to make?

Because I only used 4 ingredients: - Butter, white sugar, plain flour and my favorite jam.

These ingredients are actually some usual ingredients you have at home.

For:

                        Butter- I used 'Cowhead' brand. Doesn't really matter what brand you use anyway but if you use unsalted butter, it would be best if you put a little salt in.

White sugar- Your normal white sugar, not icing sugar.

Plain flour- All-purpose flour/plain flour

Jam/fruit preserves- ST. Dalfour jam. (Long & thin jar. Can be found even at convenience store)

Makes: 36 serving
( Lesser if thicker biscuit )

-1/2 cup butter, softened // 125ml

-1/4 cup white sugar // 50ml
-1 cup sifted plain flour // 250 ml
- 1/4 cup any flavor jam
(Or you can just scoop it out of the jar)


1. Preheat your oven at 190 degrees C ( or 150 deg C for small ovens )

2. Mix the butter and sugar together until soft and fluffy.

3. Add the flour in and mix well.
* if the dough is a little too oily then add a little more flour in.*

4. Roll small pieces of dough around 1 inch and using your thumb, make an indent in the center of the dough.
* 1/2 inch indent*

You can then fill the jam in.( Before/after is fine )
* I filled it after *
Lastly, bake for 20 mins, up to 25 mins for small ovens.

You can choose to sprinkle a little icing sugar or put glaze over the cookie.




I put it in the fridge, fearing the jam will spoil.
Still taste as good the next day !

*** Don't make the ball/base too big, or it'll turn out too thick.***


ENJOY MAKING~
