Raspberry Shortbread Dreams Cookies

3 1/2 dozen
1 cup sweet softened butter, do not substitute
2/3 cups granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
2 cups flour
1/3 to 1/2 cup seedless raspberry jam
Glaze
1 cup confectioners' sugar
2 to 3 teaspoons water
1/2 teaspoon almond extract

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Beat together the butter and sugar until well blended. Beat in
extract and gradually add flour until dough forms a ball. Cover and
refrigerate for 1 hour or until easy to handle.
Roll dough into 1-inch balls. Place 1 inch apart on ungreased baking
sheets. With the end of a wooden spoon or your finger, make an
indentation in the center of ball and fill with raspberry jam.
Bake 14 to 18 minutes or until edges are lightly browned. Remove to
a wire rack to cool.
