Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup unsalted butter
• 1/2 cup cream cheese
• 3/4 cup sugar
• 1 large egg
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 2/3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp salt
• crushed graham crackers
• jam of your choice

Directions:

Step 1

Combine 1/2 cup unsalted butter and 1/2 cup cream cheese in a large mixing bowl. Cream together until smooth using a whisk. Next, add 3/4 cup sugar and continue mixing until light and fluffy. Once done, add 1 large egg and 1 tsp vanilla extract. Mix until incorporated. Now, sift together 1 2/3 cups of all-purpose flour, 1/2 tsp baking powder, and 1/2 tsp salt over the mixture. Fold together until well combined. Cover the bowl with cling wrap and chill it in the fridge for at least an hour.

Step 2

After chilling, scoop about 1/4 cup of the batter and coat it in crushed graham crackers. Place it in a parchment paper-lined sheet pan. Repeat these and fill the sheet pan with dough balls. Once done, press a hole in the center of each dough piece, then fill each with the jam of your choice. Place the cookies in the preheated 350 degrees F oven and bake for twelve to fourteen minutes. After baking, let the cookies cool down completely before serving.
