Hello. After all the hard work sit down with friends and enjoy a good gossip while nibble on the cookies and wash it down with tea. No, nothing else in the tea if you question a color of it...lol. This is a fussion tea and yummy. Thanks for following my make and bake series. Here is a recipe. - Jam cookie - Ingredients: 300grmm flour 150grmm butter 200grmm sugar 1 egg 1/2 spoon of sourcream 1/2 pack of baking powder Teaspoon of lemon zest Choice of jam The oven should be pre-heated to 180C (fan forced) Method: Mix the flour and a butter together in a bowl. Add the rest of the ingrediants to the mix and knead untill you get a soft dough. (not the jam though) If the dough sticking to your finger while you work it use some more flour, if too dry (edges breaking off) add some more sourcream. Go gentle on it, you should not need much. Get a rolling pin and flat the dough to roughly 0.5cm thickness. Use the cookie cuter to cut the forms out, in every second shape need to cut a smaller hole in the middle. Baking/grease paper in the baking tray and put the cut out forms in it. Put a tray in the hot oven and bake the cutie things for 15 minutes. If you don't see the edges start to darken a bit then another 5 minutes baking. Get the baked cookies out wait for them to cool down. Use the jam to stick the pieces together. The blank and the cut out one. You will find out in no time how much you need of the jam. If you put too much jam on it when you push a two pieces together the jam will come out of the side. It is not a problem but you will keep wipe the jam off the side of the cookies...lol. leave the cookies overnite to 'rest', eat them next day. I do dust them with icing sugar for more fun. Can make about 12-14 cookies... (this recipe runs in the family, I have no idea where it is came from we just have it written in a back of the cookbook, so if you don't understand a method I am an IM away) seeya

I love these cookies. Mother always called them thumbprint cookies because the hole for the jelly was made with the thumb.

Stellar delicate fit-for-a-womens-magazine fotograph of the scrumptious cookies and chicken soup-looking tea, Tunde! If weren't for the sugar part of it, which I'm not allowed to have, in your recipe, I'd be mixing up a batch right now!
