Instructions:

- Cream the Butter and Sugar: In a mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Incorporate Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the flour and salt to the creamed mixture, mixing until a soft dough forms. Stir in the vanilla extract until well combined.
- Shape the Cookies: Roll the dough into 2-inch balls and then flatten out with your hand into a circle. Then, use your finger or the back of a small spoon and make a heart shape. Fill the heart shape with strawberry jam.
- Bake to Perfection: Bake the assembled cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
- Cool and Enjoy: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Once cooled, these delightful heart jam cookies are ready to be enjoyed with a cup of tea or shared with loved ones.
