Ingredients
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • ⅓ cup dark corn syrup
  • 2 teaspoons baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup butter or shortening
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3½ cups flour
  • Raspberry or strawberry jam
  • Icing sugar
Instructions
  1. Mix in order.
  2. Chill dough in fridge for about half an hour.
  3. Roll out the chilled dough and cut cookies with 2½" cookie cutters. If you'd like the peek-a-boo whole, use a round shaped smaller cutter to cut a whole in half of the cookies to match the solid cookies.
  4. Bake about 5-7 minutes in a 350° oven until lightly browned and cool completely.
  5. Spread ½ tsp of jam on each solid cookie and match with a peek-a-boo cookie. Sprinkle with a small amount of icing sugar.
Notes
These cookies are perfect for the freezer and come out soft.
