Another old favorite of my mother's. A neighbour was making these when I was a child and I never got enough of them.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter
1/4 cup white sugar
1 egg yolk, beaten
2 teaspoons lemon juice
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 egg white
1 cup finely chopped walnuts
1 cup (approx.) raspberry jam or jelly
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2. Cream butter and sugar; add yolk and lemon juice and beat well. Stir in flour until well blended.
3. Form into 1 inch balls, dip into beaten egg white then into chopped nuts. Place on greased cookie sheet, make deep indentation in center of each cookie. Bake for 5 minutes, then quickly indent centers again, continue baking for 10 minutes.
4. Fill center of each hot cookie with raspberry jam or jelly.
