Jam, meet Shortbread.
Originally, this project was going to involve chocolate. Brain-numbing amounts of chocolate. And I am still developing chocolate bar recipes such as the Chocolate Smear that was made last week. But non-chocolate recipes have done really well. I was really surprised.
Last night, I created the gigantic version of a jam thumbprint cookie. This is no dainty nibbler. As I promised, cookie-bars have more of the good stuff. In this case, the good stuff is the jam-soaked shortbread in the center of a thumbprint cookie. I've always wanted more of the center bit. After last night, the Circle Bar brings the "wanting" into reality.
Using a modified shortbread recipe and some homemade apricot jam, delicious disks of jam-soaked shortbread cookies came out of my oven. The shortbread was light and crisp and delicately scented with vanilla. The jam had caramelized around the edges and turned into a chewy, toothsome mouthful.
If you close your eyes and inhale slowly, you can actually smell the fuzz on the apricots.
