Instructions for Grandmothers Jelly Cookies

In the spirit of the season, Grandmothers Jelly Cookies guarantee that Santa Claus will recruit you to pack his bag. Make extra and give them as a gift to yourself. In a large bowl, cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add egg and vanilla; beat well. Stir to make a smooth dough. (If batter gets too hard to handle, mix with hands). Refrigerate about two hours. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Lightly grease baking sheets. On a lightly floured board, roll out half of the dough to about a 1/8 inch thickness. Cut with a 2 1/2 inch cookie cutter. Roll out remaining dough; cut with a 2 1/2 inch cutter with a hole in the middle. Place on baking sheets. Bake 8 - 10 minutes, or until lightly browned. Cool about 30 minutes. To serve, spread preserves on plain cookie; top with a cookie with a hole.
