JAMMY DODGERS
On my first trip to Great Britain, I stumbled upon these cookies (or biscuits, as they're known in the U.K.). These iconic treats, sold as Jammie Dodgers, can be found everywhere over there. Since I couldn't find them in the States, I had to make my own version. -James Schend, Taste of Home Deputy Editor, Culinary

Transfer dough and paper to a baking sheet; refrigerate until firm, about 10 minutes. Cut with a lightly floured 2-1/2-in. round cookie cutter. Using a floured 1-in. round cookie cutter, cut out centers of half of the cookies. Place solid and window cookies 1 in. apart on ungreased baking sheets. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes. , Bake at 325° until edges are lightly browned, 15-20 minutes. Cool for 2 minutes before removing to wire racks to cool completely.

JAMMIE DODGERS (JAM SANDWICH COOKIES)
I can't believe this recipe hasn't been posted! Jammie Dodgers are really yummy biscuits (cookies) that are popular in U.K., I always associate them with parties when I was little. They're like linzer cookies but thicker and more kid-friendly. This recipe was originally from the Australian taste.au site but I've changed it slightly to make them taste more authentic. Preparation time includes chilling.

Steps:
- Cream the butter and sugar togerther until pale and fluffy, then stir in flour and cornstarch to form a dough, adding more flour if necessary.
- Chill the dough wrapped in cling film for 20 minutes, then roll out to about 5mm thick (I find it easier to do this between two sheets of cling film or greaseproof baking paper).
- Cut out 12 rounds (about 2 1/2 inch), then cut a smaller heart shape (ot circle if you can't find a cutter) in the centre, about an inch in size. Re-roll dough if needed using the scraps to make 12 more 2 1/2 inch rounds.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, then cool on a wire rack. When cooled, sandwich together with a little bit of warmed jam and sprinkle with a bit of sugar of you like.

Steps:
- To make the biscuits, mix together the butter and sugar in a bowl with a wooden spoon until well combined. Add the egg and vanilla, and continue to beat by hand until fully incorporated. You will need to scrape the edges of the bowl down for this part.
- Tip the flour into the mixture and fold together until fully combined, then shape into a ball. Roll the dough out onto a floured sheet of baking parchment to a depth of around 5mm. Transfer the sheet to a baking tray and put in the fridge for 10 mins to firm up.
- Remove from the fridge and press out your biscuits using a 6cm flower-shaped cutter (you could use any shaped cutters to make these). You will need 16 base biscuits and 16 top biscuits, with small holes or flowers of around 3cm cut out of them.
- Recombine your dough off-cuts and reroll them on a floured surface. Try to be fairly quick doing this, as the mixture will warm up and get sticky. If it does, just pop it back in the fridge to firm up again.
- Once the shapes are cut out, arrange on 2 baking sheets lined with baking parchment and leave to cool in the fridge for 10 mins.
- Heat oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Bake the biscuits for 7 mins, then take them out of the oven and sprinkle the tops with caster sugar. Return all the biscuits to the oven and cook for a further 5 mins. Take out and allow to cool fully on a wire rack. When cool, spread jam on the bottom biscuit and top with another biscuit, sandwiching them together. Will keep for 2-3 days in an airtight container.
