I had some strawberries lying around, and decided to use those in the cookies instead of jam. I just mashed them up and added a little organic honey, they turned out great!<3 i do think the dough was a bit too oily, i might subsitute something else next time like applesauce to make it healthier:) -
Although it was a bit time consuming, I really enjoyed this recipe! The dough was not very sweet, and it complimented the jelly nicely! Thanks! -
I made these yesterday for a Valentine lunch and everyone loved them! They were really easy to make and tasted great! I will make these again. Great cookies! -
Ended up using jelly instead of jam. It's important to use more the tip of your thumb and not too much jelly/jam to make them look nice.

Me and my boyfriend have been together for 11 years now. We live on 40 acres and have 6 dogs and 4 Tennessee Walkers. We both work a lot of hours so there is never enough time in a day to get everything done. I absolutely love the outdoors. I also enjoy lifting weights, reading and playing with all of my beautiful animals. I absolutely love, love and love to cook. I like to cook a variety of things and also like love to bake. I like to just get in the kitchen and experiment with different things. If something does not turn out for me such as pie crust or gravy I will keep trying until I can make it work. Only problem is, when I finally make it work it may not work again the time after that. It is fun though and I do consider myself a pretty good cook for the most part. I also love slow cooker recipes. Those are my most favorite in the winter months.
