These moist, crumbly jam drops are soooo moreish, I have added a touch of orange zest to the mixture which gives them an unique zing ♥♥♥

Ingredients:-

• 250g unsalted butter (softened)
• 3 tbsp castor sugar
• zest of 1 orange
• 1 egg yolk
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 250g plain flour – sifted
• 90g dessicated coconut
• 3 tbsp raspberry jam

Method:-

1. Preheat oven to 180°C, line a large tray with baking paper.
2. Beat the butter, sugar and orange zest with beaters until pale.  Add the egg yolk and vanilla, and beat until combined.  Fold in flour and coconut.
3. Roll tablespoon sized pieces of dough into balls, place on baking tray 2 cm apart and press to flatten slightly.
4. Make an indent in the centre with your finger or thumb and place a half a teaspoon of jam in the indent.

Bake for 10-12 mins or until lightly browned.  Leave to cool on wire racks.

Makes about 30.  Enjoy!
