Ingredients:

For the Cookies:

 

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

1 cup unsalted butter, softened

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1/2 cup brown sugar, packed

1 large egg

1 tsp vanilla extract

1/2 tsp baking soda

1/4 tsp salt

1/2 cup raspberry jam (or preserves)

For the White Chocolate Glaze:

 

1 cup white chocolate chips

1/4 cup heavy cream

1 tsp vanilla extract

Preparation:

1. Make the Cookie Dough:

 

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.

Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until the dough comes together.

2. Shape the Cookies:

 

Scoop about 1 tablespoon of dough and roll it into a ball.

Using your thumb, make an indentation in the center of each dough ball.

Fill the indentation with about 1/2 teaspoon of raspberry jam.

Carefully pinch the edges of the dough around the jam to seal it, creating a little pocket.

Place the cookies on the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.

3. Bake the Cookies:

 

Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges of the cookies are golden brown.

Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

4. Make the White Chocolate Glaze:

 

While the cookies are cooling, prepare the glaze.

In a heatproof bowl, combine the white chocolate chips and heavy cream.

Microwave the mixture in 20-second intervals, stirring in between, until the white chocolate is fully melted and smooth.

Stir in the vanilla extract.

5. Drizzle the Glaze:

 

Once the cookies have cooled, drizzle the creamy white chocolate glaze over each cookie.

Allow the glaze to set before serving, about 15 minutes.
