Steps
The easy process to make Valentine’s Day spiced cookies
Place all the ingredients in the mixer in the order listed in the ingredient list, alternating between pulses. Leave the egg for last. Once all the ingredients are well combined, add the egg and let the mixer work.
Put the dough on a work surface and with the help of a sprinkle of flour form a dough ball and let it rest in the fridge for just 10 minutes.
Roll out the dough on a baking sheet with the help of parchment paper, and use a glass to cut out the cookies. With the tip of your index finger, form the wells inside the cookies and then fill these cavities with a teaspoon of jam.
Bake in the oven for 10 minutes at 338°F (170°C) fan. They will remain slightly puffed and soft, do not overcook them.
