Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Mix together the jam filling and set aside.
  2. In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder and salt to blend; set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, beat the butter and sugar until light and creamy (the original recipe calls for doing this with an electric mixer, but I just used a wooden spoon – that worked fine).
  4. Beat in the yolks, lemon zest, lemon juice, and both extracts.
  5. Add the flour mixture, and beat just until ingredients are well moistened.
  6. Gather the dough into a ball and begin pinching off and rolling into 1” balls (I used a 1/2 tablespoon to measure the dough out and get uniform sizes – it worked great).
  7. If desired, roll ball in finely chopped nuts.
  8. Place rolled balls on lightly greased cookie sheet, keeping them 1” apart.
  9. With your floured fingertip (I used the back side of a teaspoon measuring spoon), indent each ball in the center; fill indentation with the jam filling.
  10. Bake cookies at 350 degrees for 16 to 20 minutes (I found 16 minutes to be plenty for my oven – you don’t want to over-bake them).
  11. Transfer cookies to waxed paper and sprinkle the tops with some powdered sugar sifted through a fine mesh strainer or sifter.
