Method
Step 1:
Pre-heat the oven to 180°C (fan 160°C/gas mark 4). Line 2 large baking trays with non-stick baking parchment.
Step 2:
Beat together the softened butter, sugar and vanilla until pale and fluffy.
Step 3:
Add in the beaten egg and mix until combined before adding the flour, baking powder and salt. Mix together until a soft dough is formed.
Step 4:
Roll the dough into small balls (approx. 3cm diameter) and place onto the baking trays, leaving a gap for the biscuits to spread in the oven. Gently press the centre of each biscuit with your thumb to create a hollow in the centre.
Step 5:
Add approximately ½ tsp of jam to the centre of each biscuit or until the hollow is filled.
Step 6:
Bake in the oven for 12-15 minutes until very lightly coloured. Leave to cool before moving to a wire rack.

Recipe Reviews
it was so good i even didn't have darriohea.
it was yum!!
I’m so sad! how is everyone getting a good result? i need advice! i followed the recipe exactly to a T and the mix was like cake batter💔
Very good cookies, didn’t find the dough wet at all but depends on the flour you’re using. However I prefer when they are even more buttery :). Will adjust next time
Mixture very wet cookies melted in the oven don’t recommend, wasted both time and energy on this recipe.
They did not hold their shape in the oven and despite only making small balls, they spread out a lot. I put 6 on a tray and they merged into 1 larger one. However, they are very easy to make using ingredients we already had and was relatively quick too
