Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
-
In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, unsalted butter, and granulated sugar. Mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
-
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the mixture. Stir until the dough comes together.
-
Divide the dough into 2 equal parts. Roll out each part on a lightly floured surface to a thickness of about 1/8 inch (3 mm).
-
Using a heart-shaped cookie cutter, cut out heart shapes from the rolled-out dough.
-
Place half of the heart shapes onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
-
Spoon a small amount of jam onto the center of each heart shape on the baking sheet.
-
Place the remaining heart shapes on top of the jam-filled hearts. Press the edges gently to seal.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the tarts are golden brown.
-
Remove from the oven and let cool on a wire rack.
-
Sprinkle powdered sugar over the cooled tarts. Serve and enjoy!
