Apricot-Orange Swirls Recipe

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, salt, and baking soda. In a large bowl, cream together butter and sugar until light and creamy, about 3 minutes. Beat in egg, vanilla, and orange juice. Add flour mixture in two parts, beating until each is well combined and scraping down side of bowl between additions.
  2. Divide dough into two equal balls. Wrap balls in plastic wrap and let chill in the refrigerator for one hour.
  3. Preheat oven to 375u0b0F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Roll out first ball of dough on a well floured surface. Roll dough into 12 by 5 inch rectangle that is about 1/4 inch thick. Spread rectangle evenly with 1/4 cup of jam and 1/2 tablespoon orange zest. Carefully roll dough into a pinwheel, starting with the longest side. Use a sharp knife dipped in flour to cut 1/2 inch cookies from the rolled log of dough. Place cookies on baking sheet, using your hands to carefully tamp them down into a more perfect circle. Repeat with second ball of dough.
  4. Bake cookies until golden, 17 to 20 minutes.
