  • Preheat oven to 350F. Chop the walnuts in a food processor until very fine. Beat the butter and granulated sugar in a large mixing bowl at medium speed until light and fluffy.

Flatten each ball with the bottom of a glass to a 1 ½ inch circle. Press a ½ inch indentation into the center of each cookie with your fingertip or the handle of a wooden spoon. Fill each indentation with ¼ teaspoon of preserves. Bake 10 to 12 minutes, until golden. Transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely. Sift confectioners sugar over cookies.
