Clotted Cream and Jam Thumbprint Cookies

These clotted cream and jam thumbprint cookies are easy to make and perfect for a sweet treat. The richness of the clotted cream pairs wonderfully with your favourite jam.

Ingredients:

  • 100g unsalted butter, softened
  • 100g caster sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 200g plain flour
  • 100g Langage Farm Clotted Cream
  • 4-5 tbsp of your favourite jam (strawberry, raspberry, or apricot work well)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 180°C (160°C fan) or gas mark 4. Line a baking tray with baking parchment.

  2. Make the Dough: In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and caster sugar until light and fluffy. Mix in the vanilla extract. Gradually add the plain flour and mix until a soft dough forms.

  3. Shape the Cookies: Roll the dough into small balls (about the size of a walnut) and place them on the prepared baking tray, spacing them slightly apart. Use your thumb or the back of a spoon to make a small indent in the centre of each ball.

  4. Fill the Indents: Spoon a small amount of Langage Farm Clotted Cream into each indent, then top with a small dollop of jam.

  5. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges of the cookies are lightly golden. Allow them to cool on the baking tray for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
