Ingredients
- 1 Cup butter, softened
- 0.67 Cup white sugar
- 1.25 Teaspoons (tsp) almond extract, divided
- 2 Cups all-purpose flour
- 0.5 Cup seedless raspberry jam
- 0.5 Cup confectioners' sugar
- 1 Teaspoon (tsp) milk
Steps
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- In a medium bowl, beat the butter and white sugar together until creamy. Mix in 0.5 teaspoon of almond extract. Gradually add the flour and mix until the dough comes together.
- Form the dough into 1.5-inch balls and place them on ungreased cookie sheets about 2 inches apart. Use your thumb to press down and make a dent in the center of each ball, then fill with raspberry jam.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the edges are lightly browned, about 14 to 18 minutes. Allow the cookies to cool on the cookie sheet for a few minutes.
- In a medium bowl, mix the confectioners' sugar, milk, and the remaining 0.75 teaspoon of almond extract until smooth. Drizzle lightly over the warm cookies.
