Follow this simple six-step recipe to make these ultra-tasty raspberry jam drop biscuits.

Step 1

Line 2 or 3 baking trays with parchment. Heat the oven to 180C/160Cfan/gas 4.

TOP TIP

These Jam Drops are perfect for experimenting with other jam flavours – and they taste even better with homemade jam!

Step 2

Sift the flour, cornflour and baking powder into a bowl.

Step 3

Place the butter, Caster sugar and Lyle’s Golden Syrup into a bowl and using and electric whisk, beat until pale and fluffy, add the vanilla extract. Fold in the dry ingredients until the mixture forms and soft dough.

Step 4

Take small pieces of dough about the size of a walnut and roll into a ball walnut. Place on the baking tray, leaving room to spread, then repeat and make more balls.

Step 5

Make an imprint into each ball using your finger, deep enough to hold a little jam. Carefully place a small blob of jam in each using about ¼ tsp jam.

TOP TIP

If you’d rather not use your finger to make an imprint for the jam in the biscuits, try using the rounded tip of a wooden spoon handle instead.

Step 6

Place in the oven for 15-20 minutes until lightly golden brown. Carefully transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. These cookies will keep in an airtight tin for up to 4 days.

TOP TIP

These sweet treats make for perfect little lunchbox fillers, or a dainty addition to a picnic or afternoon tea. To make sure that your jam drop biscuits cool completely, leave them on the wire rack for about 10-15 minutes.
