I'm not a big fan of jam, but these cookies were surprisingly good. The dough is light and fluffy, and the jam filling is perfectly sweet and tart.

I had some trouble getting the cookies to hold their shape. They spread out too much in the oven. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

These cookies were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred them with a less sweet jam. Otherwise, they were good.
