BLACKBERRY JAM COOKIES RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 180°C or 350°F.
• Prepare the baking trays lined with baking sheet.
• In a bowl, beat together the butter and sugar until creamy.
• Add the milk powder, vanilla, salt, sifted flour and custard powder to the bowl and mix well.
• Using your hands, roll spoonfuls of the mixture into balls. Place the balls on the baking sheet, spacing them apart to allow room for spreading.
• Using a small measuring spoon or using your thumb, press into the centre of each cookie to make an indent.
• Fill each hole with a little bit of blackberry jam.
• Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes. Leave for 2 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool.

Steps:

• Cream butter, shortening and brown sugar until light and fluffy, 5-7 minutes. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in vanilla. In another bowl, whisk flour, baking soda and salt; gradually beat into creamed mixture. Divide dough in half. Shape each into a disk; cover. Refrigerate until firm enough to roll, about 30 minutes., Preheat oven to 350°. On a lightly floured surface, roll each portion of dough to 1/8-in. thickness. Cut with a floured 2-in. round cookie cutter. Place half of the circles onto parchment-lined baking sheets. Spread 1 teaspoon spreadable fruit in the center of each circle; top with remaining circles, pressing edges lightly to seal., Bake until light brown, 10-12 minutes. Remove from pans to wire racks to cool.
