For a richer flavor, use browned butter-flavored shortening. Chilling the dough is crucial for preventing the cookies from spreading too thin during baking. Feel free to experiment with other flavors of jam, such as apricot or blackberry. Store these cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
