Serves: 32 cookies
3 sticks unsalted butter, at room temperature 1 cup sugar 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract 3 1/2 cups flour 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt 1 egg beaten with 1 T water for egg wash 7 ounces sweetened flaked coconut Raspberry and/or apricot jam
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Cream together butter and sugar until just combined, add vanilla. Sift flour and salt together and slowly add to the creamed butter and sugar. Mix until the dough starts to come together. Dump on a floured board and roll together into a flat disk. Wrap in plastic wrap and chill for 30 minutes.
Roll the dough into 1 1/4-inch balls. Dip each ball into the egg wash and then roll it in coconut. Place the balls on an ungreased cookie sheet and press a light indentation into the top of each with your finger.
Drop 1/4 teaspoon of jam into each indentation. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until the coconut is a golden brown. Cool and serve.
