These are very good cookies! I needed to add a little more flour so they were not sticky to roll, and filled the cookies with the jam before baking.

Fabulous! I rolled the cookies in chopped pecans and filled with raspberry jam! Everyone who tried them LOVED them! I also did a batch with chopped walnuts - they were good too, but not nearly as good as with the pecans. Thanks for a great recipe!

Fantastic! These are just like mom used to make. They are melt-in-your-mouth good. Since the recipe doesn't tell you how many or what kind of nuts to use, I find that 2 c. finely chopped pecans works great. I filled them with vanilla frosting dyed red and green for Christmas and they were delicious and pretty to look at! Thanks.

Did not care for the consistency of the cookie, and it just didn't taste good. Will not try these again.

I made these today for gifts. I used raspberry jam in some and the others I used green and red frosting, and rolled the frostinged ones in red and green sugar. Delicious!

This is an awesum recipe. My grandmother used to make this when I was little and she's been gone a long time and decided to make them to honor her. We use all flavors of jams in them and love them all especially apricot.
