Ingredients
  

For the Cookies

  • 1 cup All-Purpose Flour Can be replaced with gluten-free flour for a gluten-free version.
  • 1 cup Finely Ground Almonds (Almond Flour) Swap with sunflower seed flour for a nut-free alternative.
  • 1 pinch Salt Balances sweetness; omit for low-sodium diets.

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened unsalted butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy.
  2. Add the vanilla extract and mix until fully combined, achieving a creamy consistency.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, finely ground almonds, and salt. Gradually add this to the creamed mixture, stirring until just combined.
  4. Wrap the dough tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
  5. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C), lining baking sheets with parchment paper.
  6. Scoop out about 1 tablespoon of dough, roll it into a ball, and create an indentation in the center. Fill with blueberry jam and reshape the cookie.
  7. Place on the baking sheets and bake for 12-15 minutes until edges are lightly golden.
  8. Allow the cookies to cool for 5 minutes before rolling in powdered sugar. Dust again when completely cool.
