Buttery Jam Cookies


Well, I've been away for so long and now I've misplaced the cable to connect my camera to the computer so after all of these weeks with no posting, I'm posting without photos! Hah, found it! See photo above to see how utterly non-delightful my little gems turned out to be!

I have managed to make all of the recipes since Thanksgiving's TwoFer Pie, I just haven't blogged about any of them yet.

But, this week, I was going to get back on the straight and narrow. I made my cookies on time and I took a picture for posterity. it wasn't until I went to post that I realized I had no idea where my cable is!

Suffice it to say, these cookies are easy to make, but they are boring and bland. I did not find anything to recommend them - I used the Apricot jam suggested in the recipe and I could not taste it at all. I like the thought of these cookies, a simple cookie with the sweet addition of a jam or marmalade, but in practice, I just thought, these were so what? The folks at work seemed to enjoy them far more than I.
