If you're looking for a simple and tasty cookie to have with tea, these jam cookies are for you.
I intended to make these cookies with apricot jam, as the recipe suggests, but by the time I got around to making them, the apricot jam was gone and boysenberry had taken its place. This dark jam turned my cookie dough purple and I realized that, esthetically, a light-hued jam would have looked much better.
Nevertheless, I made my purple cookies while the small people around me gave me their observations on what the dough looked like, which unfortunately I cannot reproduce here. Despite their wacky colour, the cookies came out just fine. They did not spread a lot and the dough was stiff enough that I was able to roll them into even-sized balls. They were soft with a cakey texture and not overly buttery, as their name suggests.
They don't look glamorous but they're good for snacking. Give them a try with any jam of your choice.

I made these cookies few days ago. They were ok, but nothing sensational. Used apricot jam, but couldnt feel any apricot flavor.
