Jam Filling

Your favorite jam or marmalade (lemon, orange, or berry)

Instructions

Step 1

Prepare the Cookie Dough

In a large mixing bowl, *beat the softened unsalted butter* with the powdered sugar and salt using an electric mixer on medium speed for about 5 minutes. *Ensure the mixture is light and fluffy.*

Next, add the medium egg and continue to *beat for another couple of minutes* until well combined.

Sift in the all-purpose flour and *add the lemon zest* if using. Mix on low speed until the dough is just combined and smooth.

Step 2

Shape the Cookies

Preheat your oven to 190 degrees Celsius (375 degrees Fahrenheit). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Transfer the dough into a piping bag fitted with a large round tip and *pipe small mounds* of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving at least 1.5 to 2 centimeters (about 1 inch) of space between each cookie.

Using the back of a spoon or your finger, *make an indentation in the center* of each cookie. *It helps to slightly wet the spoon or your finger* to prevent sticking.

Step 3

Add the Jam and Bake

Fill each indentation with your favorite jam or marmalade. *Feel free to mix flavors* for variety!

Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and *bake for about 10 minutes* or until the cookies are lightly golden on the edges.

Step 4

Cool and Enjoy

Once baked, remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to *cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes* before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Now they are ready to enjoy! *These lemon jam thumbprint cookies are a delightful treat* that you can share with family and friends.
