Pepper Jelly Cornmeal Cups

from Better Homes and Gardens
Makes about 6 dozen cookies

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a rimmed cookie sheet with parchment paper, a Silpat, or spray it with nonstick cooking spray.

In the bowl of a stand mixer, beat butter, brown sugar, baking powde and salt. Beat 2 minutes, scraping side of bowl occasionally. Beat in egg yolks, vanilla and cornmeal, then add flour.

Shape dough into 3/4-inch balls. Place 1 inch apart on prepared cookie sheet. These don’t spread too much so they can go pretty closely together. Lightly press the tip of your thumb into the center of each ball of dough. Fill each center with about 1/8 teaspoon of the jelly.

Bake about 10 minutes or until bottoms are lightly browned. Cool on cookie sheet for 1 minute. Transfer cookies to a wire rack; let cool.
