 onelonelyfoxmetall submitted Strawberry Jelly Cookies to the  faccc when  chrismukkah suggested the making of such. I was reminded of the past and my mother cooking these but never had more than a vague memory of the recipe. So today I took to the kitchen and made my own version. In Australia we call these Jam Tartlets and all-perpose flour is what we call Plain Flour. The only addition I made was a little vanilla essence to the base mix. Thankyou  onelonelyfoxmetall and  chrismukkah for rekindelling a treasured memory of the past.

Jam Tartlets (biscuit/cookie)

Ingredients
3/4 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup white sugar
2 egg yolks
1 3/4 cups plain flour
1 tsp vanilla essence
Fruit jam, any flavour (raspberry/blackberry)

Method
1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
2. In a medium bowl, cream together the butter, white sugar and egg yolks then vanilla essence. Mix in flour a little bit at a time until a soft dough forms. Roll dough into 1 inch balls. If dough is too soft, refrigerate for 15 to 20 minutes. Place balls 2 inches apart onto ungreased cookie sheets. Use your finger or an instrument of similar size to make a well in the center of each cookie. Fill the hole with about 1/2 teaspoon of jam.
3. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven, until golden brown on the bottom. make sure you let them cool for a while when done the cookie will be cold but the jam is super hot yet.
