C Shaped Cookies

Ingredients:
– 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
– 1 cup granulated sugar
– 1 large egg
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
– 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
– 1/4 teaspoon salt
– Jam or preserves of your choice (strawberry or raspberry work well)

Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.

3. Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture, beating well to combine.

4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.

5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a smooth dough forms.

6. Roll the dough into small balls about 1 inch in diameter. Using your thumb, gently press down in the center of each ball to create a small well.

7. Fill the center of each cookie with a small amount of jam or preserves of your choice. Be careful not to overfill as the jam will spread during baking.

8. Shape each filled cookie dough ball into a ‘C’ shape on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring the jam stays in the center.

9. Place the cookies in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.

10. Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

11. Once completely cooled, these C Shaped Cookies are ready to be enjoyed with a cup of tea or coffee, or shared with family and friends as a delightful homemade gift.
