How to Make Strawberry Thumbprint Cookies?
Mix all the ingredients of the heart jam cookies into a dough, wrap it in a cling film, and allow it to rest in the refrigerator for an hour.
Prepare a baking tray with baking paper, and once the dough has rested enough, preheat the oven to 170 ℃ (340°F).
Then knead it well and form small, even balls. Press the balls a little bit to shape them.

Using your index finger, or spoon press a heart shape in the middle of the cookie dough.

Fill each heart shaped cookie with red jam. Then place Valentine’s heart jam cookies onto the baking sheet.
