Shortbread Cookies with Jam

Shortbread Cookies with Jam

I used to think that beautifully crafted cookies could only be purchased from stores, but that's not the case. I discovered this recipe on a forum and tried it immediately; no one believed they were homemade. Someone even thought they resembled store-bought cookies!

This recipe is quick and easy to prepare, and truly worth a try. Apricot jam is an excellent choice, providing a wonderful aroma and vibrant color, though you can use any thick jam you prefer.
