Little bite sized cookies filled with jam and sprinkled with powdered sugar, I can live with that.
2 C. all purpose flour
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
12 tbsp. unsalted butter, softened
2/3 C. granulated sugar
1/2 tsp. vanilla
Assorted jams (orange, raspberry, grape, and/or strawberry
Confectioner's sugar for dusting
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Whisk the flour, baking powder and salt in a bowl. Beat the butter, granulated sugar and vanilla in a large bowl with a mixer until light and fluffy. Add half of the dry ingredient and mix until just combined, then mix in the remaining dry ingredients. Knead a few times by hand to bring the dough together.
Roll teaspoonfuls of dough into balls and place about a half inch apart on the prepared baking sheets. Make an indentation in hte center of each ball with a small measuring spoon. Fill each indentation with jam (a scant 1/8 tsp.)
Bake until the edges of the cookies are golden, 15 to 20 minutes. Let cool 2 minutes on the baking sheets, then transfer to a rack to cool completely. Dust with confectioner's sugar if desired. Store in an airtight container.
