Instructions

  • Cream butter and sugar in a medium mixing bowl. Mix in flour, egg, vanilla, baking powder, and salt until incorporated. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Roll dough on a lightly floured surface to a thickness of 1/4 inch. Cut dough into circles with a round cookie cutter or glass. Using the tip of a teaspoon, place a small drop of apricot preserves into the middle of each circle. Brush the edges with water and fold the dough in half into a half-moon shape. Press to seal the edges. Arrange cookies on ungreased cookie sheets.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 8 to 12 minutes. Remove from the oven and transfer to wire racks to cool. Dust hot cookies with powdered sugar.
