Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
Place all of the ingredients except the strawberry jam inside a large mixing bowl and mix until evenly incorporated and a large ball of dough is formed.
Fold in 2 T. of the strawberry jam.
Use a cookie scoop to drop the dough by rounded teaspoons onto the baking sheet.
Use the tines of a fork to gently press the top of each cookie dough ball flat onto the baking sheet.
Drop about ¼ to ½ teaspoon of strawberry jam onto the top of each cookie.
Bake for 10 minutes or until the cookies are lightly golden.
Let the cookies cool completely so they can crisp up once removing from the oven.
