Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Jam Drops
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line two baking trays with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, cream softened unsalted butter and caster sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the vanilla extract, large egg, and cooking salt until well combined.
- Gradually mix in plain flour until a crumbly dough forms.
- Scoop portions of dough and roll into balls, then place onto prepared trays with space between each.
- Gently flatten each dough ball into a thick disc and press an indent in the center.
- Fill each indent with about 1/2 teaspoon of warmed jam.
- Bake for approximately 14 minutes, rotating trays halfway through baking.
- Allow cookies to cool on the tray for several minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes
Use room temperature ingredients for best results and do not overfill the jam to prevent overflow during baking.
