Cook's Note: I love ANYTHING Shortbread and this recipe DOES NOT disappoint. It's rather simple and super delicious. I just made these yesterday and they won't last more than 48 hours here in my house. GREAT with a nice cup of tea or coffee.
What You Will Need:
1 cup butter, softened
2/3 cup granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup strawberry jam
sugar for sprinkling
Directions:
In your Kitchen Aid
Stand Mixer, beat butter at medium speed for about 30 seconds or until frothy.
Add sugar and 1/2 teaspoon almond extract. Beat until thoroughly mixed. Beat in
flour gradually with whisk attachment and change to dough hook if needed.
Alternative, you can use a wooden spoon to stir in any remaining flour if the
dough gets too stiff in the stand mixer. Cover and chill for 1 hour or until
dough is easy to handle.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Shape dough into 1-inch balls. Place balls 2 inches apart on cookie sheets, sprayed with nonstick Flour Cooking spray. Using your thumb or the back of a spoon, press an
indentation into the center of each ball. Spoon about 1/2 teaspoon of the jam
into each indentation and then sprinkle with just a little sugar.
Bake about 10 minutes or until edges are light brown. Cool
on cookie sheets for 1 minute. Transfer cookies to wire racks to finish
cooling.

Yield about 3 dozen cookies.
