Delightfully tender and filled with a pop of fruity sweetness, Rosenmunnar cookies are a classic Swedish treat perfect for any occasion. These buttery thumbprint cookies are made with a velvety dough that combines unsalted butter, sugar, and a hint of vanilla, then enriched with cornstarch for an irresistibly melt-in-your-mouth texture. Each cookie is carefully shaped and filled with jam—choose from vibrant raspberry, sweet strawberry, or tangy apricot for a personalized touch. Ready in under 40 minutes, they’re a beautiful addition to holiday platters, afternoon tea, or as a charming homemade gift. Easy to make and visually stunning, these jam-filled delights will earn a permanent spot in your baking repertoire!
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugar together using an electric mixer until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Mix in the vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a soft, smooth dough forms.
Roll the dough into small balls, about 1 tablespoon each, and place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them approximately 2 inches apart.
Use your thumb or the back of a spoon to press a shallow indent in the center of each dough ball.
Fill each indentation with about 1/4 teaspoon of your chosen jam, taking care not to overfill.
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
