Method
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Cream softened butter and sugar together until smooth and creamy (about 2 minutes).
- Mix in egg yolks, vanilla extract, and almond extract until combined.
- Gradually add flour and salt, mixing on low speed just until dough forms.
- Scoop dough into 1-inch balls. Roll each ball in the extra granulated sugar to coat.
- Place balls on baking sheet 2 inches apart. Press a thumb or spoon handle into the center of each to create a well.
- Fill each indentation with about 1/2 teaspoon of jam.
- Bake for 12-14 minutes until edges are set and lightly golden. Cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to wire rack.
Notes
If the dough is cracking too much when indented, roll it in your warm hands a bit longer to soften the butter. Chill dough if it feels too sticky.
