Recipe: Failsafe Pear Jam Drop Cookies

This is a Gluten free, Failsafe recipe:-)

250g softened butter (nutalex will also work)
1/2 cup caster sugar (or less to taste)
1 tin condensed milk
5 cups self raising Gluten Free or wheat flour

Failsafe Pear Jam

 

Beat butter and sugar until soft and creamy. Add condensed milk and beat until smooth, then add flour.

Roll a teaspoon of dough into a ball then flatten slightly.

Make an indent in the top of the biscuit with your thumb, and fill with half a teaspoon of pear jam. Place on baking trays lined with baking paper.

Bake in a moderate oven for 15 minutes.

If you can tolerate cochineal, then you could colour the jam with a tiny bit as well. This is great for kids parties when Failsafe kids can’t eat most of the regular party food.

This recipe makes stacks of biscuits! These also freeze well, and you can freeze unused dough to bake later on as well:-)
