My mother made these cookies every Christmas and I love them! The only difference is that we add the Jelly right after your remove them from the oven. As for people who said they are too crumbly, let them sit for a minute or 2 on the cookie sheet before removing them, they will get firmer as they cool.

Easy to make and very festive (particularly if you use rasberry or cherry jam)

I have not tried using this recipe because I am afraid the cookies will not turn out. I think maybe the cookies were dry and crumbly for one reviewer because there are a couple of ingredients missing. Along with the butter, sugar, extract, and flour, try adding 2 egg yolks. I would also omit the 1/2 tsp salt. Chill dough about an hour. After shaping dough into balls, roll them in egg whites before rolling them in sesame seed. I think this recipe has potentials and would yield great cookies with some adjustments.
