I always wanted to try cookies using whole wheat flour but wasn’t confident about the taste. But today I tried out these wonderful jam drop cookies using whole wheat flour instead of all purpose(maida). Earlier I had prepared jam cookies sandwich style and this time I made these jam thumbprint egg less cookies. 

Serving: 24 cookies

Time: 20 Mins

Ingredients:

• 1 Cup ( 128 Grams) Whole wheat flour
• 1/2 cup(113 Grams) butter
• ^1/3 cup(67 Grams) White powdered sugar
• Few drops of Vanilla Essence
• Mango or strawberry jam to fill the cookies.

Method:

Using electric hand mixer,whisk butter kept at room temperature along with sugar for around a minute till it is light and fluffy.

Mix vanilla essence.

Add flour and mix well.

Do not knead. Make a dough.

Make balls around 1 inch size and arrange them in the baking tray lined with ungreased butter paper or silver foil. Keep 1 inch space between each ball.

Using thumb, make impressions on each ball.

Keep dropping any kind of jam of your choice in the impressions formed on these balls. I have used  mango jam .

Bake at preheated  350 degree Fahrenheit for 10  minute.

Let them cool for 15-20 mins outside and store in airtight container.
