Jam Filled Cookies


Ingredients:

3/4 cup butter, softened to room temperature
3/4 cup granulated sugar
one large egg
one tsp. vanilla
2-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 cup strawberry jam
one cup white chocolate chips
one tsp. shortening

Preparation:

In a large mixing bowl, beat butter & sugar together until fluffy. Beat in egg & vanilla. Gradually beat in flour & baking powder until it forms a soft dough.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Divide dough in to portions. Roll dough in to a 13-inch long strip. Place on a cookie sheet. Repeat with remaining portions of dough.

With the handle of a wooden spoon, make a 1/4-inch deep indentation lengthwise down the middle of each strip of dough. Fill indentations with jam.

Bake 20-22 minutes until golden brown. Remove from oven.

In a microwave-safe bowl, heat white chocolate chips & shortening on high for 30 seconds. Stir & repeat until melted. Drizzle over jam filled cookies. Cut jam-filled cookies in to strips, cross-wise.
Makes 36 jam-filled cookies.
