Recipe View Once cooled, dust generously with confectioners' sugar before serving.

For best results, ensure the butter is properly softened before creaming. It should be soft enough to easily incorporate with the sugar.
Chilling the dough is crucial for preventing the cookies from spreading too much during baking.
Feel free to experiment with other fruit preserves, such as raspberry or peach, for a different flavor profile.
If the dough becomes too sticky while rolling, lightly dust with more flour as needed.
