Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl of a stand mixer or using an electric hand mixer, cream together the softened butter and powdered sugar. Add the rose water and beat until dissolved.
- Add the flour, one cup at a time, and use a wooden spoon or rubber spatula to mix until well combined. You may want to use your hands because the dough can feel crumbly. Chill the dough in the fridge for one hour.
- Divide the dough into 1 1/2 tablespoon-sized balls using a spring-loaded scoop or your hands. Makes 20-24 balls.
- Place the balls on the prepared baking sheet, arranging them so they’re about 2 inches apart.
- Use your thumb to make an indent in the center of the cookie and add about half a teaspoon of the jam inside.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes or until cookies are firm, slightly expanded and the bottoms are lightly golden.
- Cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
