These cookies are wonderful, and great for the holidays too. They are extremely rich, so cut them into small squares.

Time 1h30m

Yield 36 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup butter
1 cup sugar
2 egg yolks
2 cups unsifted flour
1 cup walnuts, finely chopped
3/4 cup strawberry jam

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325.
  • You will need an 8x8" ungreased baking pan.
  • In a medium bowl, cream the butter with the sugar, and then beat in the egg yolks.
  • Stir in the flour and nuts gradually.
  • Form the dough into a ball and cut in half.
  • Wrap half the dough in plastic wrap and put in the freezer while you work with the first half.
  • Pat the dough evenly into an 8x8" pan.
  • Stir the jam to soften, and spread on the dough in the pan.
  • Remove the remaining dough from the freezer and roll out between 2 pieces of plastic wrap into an 8x8" square.
  • Lay the dough on top of the jam in the pan.
  • Bake at 325F for 55-60 minutes, or until lightly browned.
  • Cut into small squares as this is very sweet and rich.
  • I usually slice 6 sections each way for 36 cookies.

These are the best strawberry jam squares I've ever had! The crust is perfectly flaky and the filling is sweet and tart. I will definitely be making these again.

These were delicious! The only thing I would change is to use a bit less sugar in the filling. Otherwise, they were perfect.

This recipe is a keeper! I've made it twice now and both times they've been a hit. The second time I made them, I added a layer of chocolate chips to the top before baking and they were even better. Thanks for sharing this recipe!
