I was not so crazy about these. I thot the jam would thicken up like the store bought kind, mine did not.

WOW! these are absolutely delicious! I made these for Christmas gifts this year and followed it exactly. I used blackberry and red raspberry preserves and couldn't keep my hands off of them. They were a huge hit with my neighbors as well. Thanks for sharing this amazing recipe!

Followed the recipe exactly. Baked a batch and waited until they were done to put the jam in, and baked a batch with the jam. I thought baking with the jam would help the jam stay on the cookie more. There was actually no difference. LOVE these cookies and they will be on the list every year for Christmas.

Very easy to make! Was a little worried because the dough was sort of crumbly but when we shaped it into the balls it formed perfectly. Instead of nuts we used flaked coconut & they turned out yummy!!!

I also add the jelly before baking them. It does help it to set. Instead of nuts, I always roll them in flaked coconut, tinted with red and green food coloring!

I used raspberry preserves in the thumb print. They are a great butter cookie with a delicious middle.

after making the dough, I divided it in half and added orange extract to one half anf almond extract to the other half.I also added a teaspoon of flour to each half to make up for adding the extract. I also refidgerated to make dough easier to handle. making two different flavored cookies with with strawberry jam.
