Butter Cookies with Plum Jam 梅果酱牛油曲奇


Butter Cookies with Plum Jam 梅果酱牛油曲奇

We made these cookies last Friday. It was a school holiday in-lieu of Children's Day, the two cookies monsters had nothing to do at home. What is a better way to spend their time than engaging them in cookies making and then let them savour the fruits of their work? Somehow, I noticed that they are more likely to enjoy the food if they are involved in the preparation process.

So I decided to make some simple butter cookies, and allow them to decorate them by piping plum jam on top. 


They were sooo excited! With just simple instruction given, Lynn is already pretty good at it! Initially, I doubted El who is 2 years old could manage it but I soon realised that I had underestimated him. With a little mess, he managed to pipe some of the jam on the cookies too.

These cookies are very easy to make, there is no need of mixer, you can do it with your bare hand. There are only 6 ingredients needed (eggs are not in the picture).


After mixed together the cookie dough, I piped them with my Wilton 1M tip. You can use any of your favorite tip, and pipe into any shape you like.


Use a chopstick (or just use your finger) to make a dented mark in the middle of the cookies.


Lyn is only 4 years old so she used syringe to pipe the jam. The syringe is small and manageable by small hands. You may use a piping bag if you wish.


Tadah! This one was piped by me. After this photo, I relinquished from my duty, sat back and let them finish the job!


That was Lyn at work!
