Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg yolk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 1/4 cups all -purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon sal t
  • 1/2 cup seedless raspberry jam
  • 1 tablespoon powdered sugar for dusting

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • In a stand mixer or large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy, approximately 3 minutes.
  • Add the egg yolk and vanilla extract, beating until fully incorporated.
  • On low speed, gradually add the flour and salt, mixing until a cohesive dough forms.
  • Set aside 1/2 cup of the dough to be used for the crumble topping.
  • Scoop the remaining dough into 1-inch balls (about 1 tablespoon each) and place them 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
  • Using a thumb or the back of a small spoon, create a deep indentation in the center of each dough ball.
  • Fill each indentation with approximately 1/2 teaspoon of raspberry jam.
  • Take the reserved 1/2 cup of dough and pinch off small pieces, sprinkling them over the jam centers to create a crumble effect.
  • Bake for 13 to 15 minutes, or until the edges are set and very lightly golden.
  • Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes to firm up.
  • Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely, then dust lightly with powdered sugar before serving.
