Streusel Jammies Recipes

Steps:

• To make the streusel: Put the flour, sugar and salt in a medium bowl and mix everything together by running the ingredients through your fingers. Drop in the butter and squeeze and rub the cubes into the mixture until you have a sandy mix. If you press a little streusel together, you'll get lumps, which is just what you want. Drizzle the vanilla over the streusel and toss, squeeze and rub to distribute it. Cover the bowl and chill the streusel until needed. (You can make the streusel up to 1 week ahead; pack it in an airtight container and keep it refrigerated.)

Steps:

• Whisk together the flour, sugar, salt, cinnamon and almonds in a medium mixing bowl.
• Add the butter and use your fingers to lightly knead into the dry ingredients until the mixture is crumbly and the butter is well incorporated.
• Use to top muffins, quick breads, crisps or ice cream. Store in an airtight container, in the refrigerator, for up to a month.

Steps:

• Finely grind almonds in a food processor. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Whisk together almonds, flour, sugar, salt, and almond extract. Cut in butter with a pastry blender until it'scompletely incorporated.
• Line 2 baking sheets with parchment. Firmly press 2 tablespoons dough into the bottom of a 2 1/2-inch round cookie cutter, then gently lift cutter to leave dough on parchment. Repeat, spacing cookies evenly on sheets, until you've made 24 rounds. Dollop 1 teaspoon jaminto center of each round, alternating flavors. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of remaining dough around border of each cookie.
• Bake, rotating sheets once, until golden brown at the edges, about 24 minutes. Transfer cookies on sheets to wire racks; let cool completely. Cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature up to 2 days.
