½ cup caster sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla essence

  2. Use an electric beater, beat the butter, sugar and vanilla essence until pale and creamy.
  3. Add the egg and beat until combined. Sift in the flour and stir until the mixture is combined.

  5. Place the balls on prepared trays about 5cm apart. Make an indentation in the centre of each ball and spoon in ½ teaspoon of jam into each biscuit.
  6. Bake in the oven for 15 minutes or until the biscuits are cooked through and lightly golden.
  7. Remove the jam drops from the oven and leave to cool for 30 minutes.
