SOFT ROLLED COOKIES with berries, easy and quick, breakfast or snack sweets with jam and fruit.
I made these soft rolled cookies with red fruits to use up some cherry jam and red fruits I had in the fridge, and I must say they quickly became a must-make breakfast sweet.
They are simple, fragrant, and really quick to prepare, with a quick shortcrust pastry that remains soft even the next day.
These rolled cookies with cherry jam are perfect for everyday breakfast, but also for children’s snacks or to serve when you’re craving something sweet without turning on mixers or spending hours in the kitchen.
Inside you’ll find red fruits quickly cooked, almost like jam, which make the filling creamy and fragrant.

SOFT ROLLED COOKIES with Berries
👉 Practical tip: use a cherry jam that isn’t too runny so the rolled cookies hold their shape better during baking.
👉 Another useful trick: let the dough rest in the fridge for even just 20 minutes, the cut will be cleaner, and the cookies will be neater.
