Recipe Introduction


shared this recipe...these buttery-delicious cookies look beautiful on a dessert tray


List of Ingredients




2/3 c. sugar
1 c. butter, softened
2 t. almond extract, divided
2 c. all-purpose flour
1/2 c. seedless raspberry jam
1 c. powdered sugar
2 to 3 t. water



Recipe




Using an electric mixer on medium speed, combine sugar, butter and 1/2 teaspoon almond extract until creamy. Reduce speed to low and add flour. Continue beating until well mixed. Shape dough into one-inch balls. Place 2 inches apart on ungreased baking sheets. Gently press a thumbprint in center of each cookie. Fill each with about 1/4 teaspoon jam. Bake at 350 degrees for 14 to 18 minutes, until edges are lightly golden. Let cool one minute on baking sheets. Remove cookies to wire racks to cool completely. Combine remaining extract, powdered sugar and water; drizzle lightly over cookies. Makes 3-1/2 dozen.
