Method

Pre-heat the oven to 180°C.

Sift the icing sugar, flour, and cornflour into a bowl and stir in the ground almonds.

Rub the cubed butter into the dry ingredients until no lumps remain and stir in the almond essence.

Knead the mixture briefly on a floured surface to form a smooth dough.

Roll dough into balls, place in a greased muffin tin, and flatten slightly.

Bake for 8 to 12 minutes until light gold, then make a small indentation in each top.

Cool for a few minutes before gently tapping the shortbreads out of the tin.

Dust with icing sugar and fill the indentations with jam once cooled.
