Let's Cook
-
Step 1.
Heat oven to 375°F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and baking soda; set aside.
-
Step 2.
Using an electric mixer, beat butter, granulated sugar, and salt in a large bowl on medium-high speed until creamy, about 3 minutes. Beat in egg yolk, then honey and extracts until smooth, stopping and scraping down the side of the bowl occasionally. Reduce speed to low, then mix in flour mixture until just combined and smooth.
-
Step 3.
Roll tablespoonfuls of dough into balls and place onto the prepared sheets, spacing them 2 inches apart. With a floured finger or the rounded end of a small spoon, make an indentation in the center of each ball. Fill each indentation with ½ teaspoon jam. Bake until golden brown around edges, about 12 minutes.
-
Step 4.
Let cookies cool on baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack to cool completely. Sift confectioners’ sugar over cooled cookies if desired. Store in airtight containers at room temperature or freeze for up to a month.
