Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • ½ cup unsalted butter softened
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • Cherry pie filling

For the glaze:

  • ½ cup powdered sugar
  • 1-2 tablespoons milk
  • ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  • Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing well.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  • Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving space between each.
  • Create an indentation in the center of each cookie using your thumb or the back of a spoon.
  • Spoon a small amount of cherry pie filling into the indentation of each cookie.
  • Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden. Keep an eye on them to prevent over-baking.
  • Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

For the Glaze

  • In a small bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  • Drizzle the glaze over the cooled cookies.
