So here is a simple recipe for some oatmeal shortbread cookies with
warm strawberry jam.
Recipe From: Jolene
Makes: about eight wedges
Ingredients:
11/4 cups all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
1/2 cup butter
( if you want to add oatmeal like I did reduce flour to 1 cup and add
in 1/3 cup quick cooking oats after cutting in butter)Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Combine flour and sugar. Cut in
butter until mixture resembles fine crumbs. Knead until smooth and
form into a ball.
2. To make wedges, on an ungreased cookie sheet pat dough into about
an 8 inch circle. Cut circle into even wedges. Leave wedges in
circle and bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until bottom starts to brown
and center is set. Recut circle into wedges while warm if needed.
3. Heat desired jam in microwave for about 15 seconds, drizzle over
wedges or use as a dipping sauce. I used strawberry but you could use
whatever you want... I think apricot/peach would be delish!
