Thumbprint Cookies: An Adventure In Cooking From Fäviken

• 3 1/2 cups flour
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1 cup sugar
• 1 1/4 cups butter (21/2 sticks) at room temperature
• 2 eggs at room temperature
• your favorite jam

1. Mix the flour, baking powder, and sugar.
2. Blend in the butter with your fingers, essentially kneading the dough into a meal. Take your time with this step.
3. Lightly beat the eggs, add them to the dough, and work until just smooth.
4. Roll the dough into 1-inch balls and place on parchment paper on a baking sheet. (The parchment paper is only needed in case the jam overflows.)
5. Make an indentation in each ball with your thumb, and fill it with jam, about 1/2 teaspoon per cookie. The runnier your jam, the deeper your indentation should be and the less jam you should use.
6. Bake at 400u0b0F for about 10 minutes or until golden brown.
