Worth knowing

Work the dough quickly so the butter stays cold: that is what keeps the cookies crumbly.
Warm the jam for a few seconds to make it easier to spread.
Let the chocolate set on baking paper in a cool place rather than in the fridge, so it stays glossy.

Keep in an airtight tin in a cool place for up to 5 days.
