So I recently made these Cheesecake & Raspberry Jam Cookies
So I followed the recipe as best as I can. I had to modify a few things especially since it was getting late.
Getting all my ingredients together. |
Mixing it together. The dough forms pretty quickly. |
I tried to roll out the dough and cut out circles but because I was working with a room temperature dough, they fell apart. Be sure to chill the dough before working with it.
Try to cut circles. Need to cut them bigger. |
Very golden brown! |
Enjoy!
