Ingredients

• 1 cup Salted butter, softened
• 1 cup Brown sugar, packed
• 1 large Egg
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.5 cup Favorite fruit jam (e.g., raspberry, strawberry, apricot)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to cream together the softened butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 3

Mix in the egg and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and baking powder. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a soft dough forms.

Step 5

Shape the dough into 1-inch balls and place them about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.

Step 6

Using your thumb or the back of a small spoon, press gently into the center of each ball to create a small indentation.

Step 7

Fill each indentation with about 1/2 teaspoon of jam, being careful not to overfill to avoid spilling during baking.

Step 8

Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are just slightly golden.

Step 9

Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 2-3 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

Serve and enjoy your jam-filled brown sugar cookies. Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
