For those who make their own preserves or jellies, this is a real opportunity to show them off. This recipe has been handed down four generations, and is a real favorite.

Ingredients

  • 0.5 cups butter
  • 0.33 cups white sugar
  • 0.33 cups dark corn syrup
  • 1 egg , separated
  • 1.25 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup finely chopped walnuts
  • 1 cup any flavor fruit jam

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a medium bowl, cream together the butter and sugar. Stir in the corn syrup and egg yolk. Gradually stir in the flour until fully incorporated. Cover and chill for at least 1/2 hour.

  2. 2

    Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Lightly grease baking sheets.

  3. 3

    Roll dough into 1 inch balls, dip them in the egg white, then roll them in the nuts. Place cookies on the prepared cookie sheet 2 inches apart. Using your finger, make an indention in the center of each cookie.

  4. 4

    Bake for 20 to 25 minutes in the preheated oven, or until golden. Fill each indention with a small amount of jam while cookies are still warm. Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheets.
