The end is near. Yesterday marked the last day of classes, which means I am one exam away from being done with undergrad. Since classes are winding down. It was also the last econ research club meeting, so I decided it would be nice to bake some cute little cookies to celebrate.

These little gems are crisp on the outside, soft on the inside with a dollop of tart jam to balance the sweetness. They’re the perfect treat for any occasion. Let’s get baking!

Notes:

1. Use butter substitute. The higher moisture content leads to softer cookies, and makes it easier to whip up
2. There’s no need to refrigerate the dough. The dough will hold up and they’ll be softer
