Desert - Ovis Molis Cookies by Carmen G. - Recipia

To prepare these delicious jam cookies, we start by ensuring that all the ingredients are at hand. In a large bowl, we put the powdered sugar and butter or margarine, preferably at room temperature, to make our work easier. Using a spatula or a mixer, we cream the mixture until we obtain a smooth and fluffy foam, making sure that the sugar is completely incorporated. This step is essential as it will contribute to the final texture of the cookies. In another bowl, we measure the necessary amount of flour and add the eggs, baking powder, and the creamed butter and sugar mixture. We mix all these ingredients with the help of a mixer or a spatula until we obtain a smooth and homogeneous dough. The consistency should be slightly sticky but firm enough to be shaped. After obtaining the dough, we cover it with plastic wrap and put it in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes. This step helps to harden the butter, which will make the cookies easier to shape. After the time has passed, we take the dough out of the refrigerator and prepare to form small balls of dough. We take a piece of dough and shape it between our palms into a ball, being careful to make them uniform in size so they bake evenly. Once we have formed all the balls, we use our finger or a spatula to create a small hole in the center of each ball. These holes will be filled with jam or preserves, and the choice of these can vary depending on personal preferences. Options may include apricot, raspberry jam, or even cherry preserves, each bringing a distinct and delicious flavor. After filling each hole with jam, we place the cookies on a baking tray lined with parchment paper, making sure to leave enough space between them. We preheat the oven to a moderate temperature, around 180 degrees Celsius, and let them bake for 10-15 minutes or until the edges become slightly golden. It is important not to overbake them, as we want them to remain soft and fragrant. Once the cookies are baked, we take them out of the oven and let them cool on a rack. Once they have completely cooled, we dust them with powdered sugar, adding a touch of sweetness and an attractive appearance. These cookies are perfect to be served alongside a cup of tea or coffee, being just right for moments of indulgence or gatherings with friends. Enjoy every bite!
