Sesame-Crusted Jam Thumbprints (Small Batch) - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1/2 cup flour (might need a bit more)
1 1/2 tablespoons sugar (scant)
1 pinch salt
1 tablespoon butter (generous)
1 tablespoon jam (or nutella or nut butter)
1/2 tablespoon sesame seeds

Preparation

In a bowl combine flour, sugar, salt and butter. Knead into a smooth dough. If it is too crumbly, add a little milk or water (just enough to make it workable). If it is too wet, add enough flour to make dough workable.
Put the sesame seeds onto a plate or platter.
Take off walnut-sized dough nuggets and roll them into balls. Flatten them slightly pressing them into the sesame seeds.
Transfer cookies to a paper-lined baking sheet and make an indentation in the middle of each cookie using your fingers or the handle of a spoon. Fill this with jam/nutella/nut butter.
Bake in the preheated oven at 190\u00b0C/375\u00b0F for 12-15 minutes or until bottoms are slightly golden.
Allow to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
