Today’s recipe is a little different. These little treats are actually kind of dainty and would be perfect for an office party. You can do what the recipe says and make them like logs or make them as a traditional round cookie. I am posting pictures of both ideas. Enjoy the Raspberry Ribbons!

1 cup butter (no substitutes), softened

1/2 cup sugar

1 egg

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

Divide dough into four portions; shape each into a 10-in. x 2-1/2-in. log. Place 4 in. apart on greased or foil-lined baking sheets. Make a 1/2-in. depression down the center of each log. Bake at 350 degrees F for 10 minutes.
Fill depressions with jam. Bake 10-15 minutes longer or until lightly browned. Cool for 2 minutes. Remove to a cutting board; cut into 3/4-in. slices. Place on wire racks.
In a small bowl, combine glaze ingredients until smooth. Drizzle over warm cookies. cool completely.
