Total Time: 120 min

Ingredients

1 cup softened butter

1.5 cup sugar

1 tsp baking powder

1/4 tsp salt

1 egg

1 tbsp bourbon vanilla

2 1/4 cups flour

1 jar Mackay’s Lemon Curd

Instructions:

In a stand mixer, cream together the butter and sugar. Add baking powder, salt, egg, and vanilla, then mix until combined. Slowly add the flour and mix until a smooth dough forms.
Chill the dough in the fridge for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line 2–3 baking sheets with parchment paper.
Roll the dough into 1 to 1.5 inch balls, then roll each ball in sugar and place on the baking sheets.
Use your thumb or the back of a measuring spoon to press a well into the center of each cookie.
Fill each well with lemon curd.
Bake for 15–20 minutes, until edges are just golden.
Let cool, then sprinkle with powdered sugar if desired.

Storage:
Store in an airtight container—if they even make it past day one! Or freeze for up to 3 months.
