Preparation

Step 1

In a large bowl, cream the butter, cream cheese and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in egg yolk and vanilla. Add flour and mix well. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour or until easy to handle.

Preheat oven to 350°F.

Shape dough into 1 inch balls. Place 2 inches apart on ungreased baking sheets.

Using the end of a wooden spoon handle, make a 1/2 inch deep indentation in the center of each ball; fill with about 1/4 teaspoon jam.

Bake 10-12 minutes or until set. Remove to wire racks to cool.
