The jam can be anything! But best combined with cocoa raspberry, strawberry, and plum jam. In any case, I've done with these types of jams. But the original recipe suggested raspberry. Mix the jam with the sugar, add vanilla, salt, hydrated soda and vegetable oil. Mix well. Add the cocoa and flour (you can sift). Stir in dry ingredients until a smooth, plastic mass. If needed, flour can be more or less depending on the thickness of your jam.

Divide the dough into balls - I did this time 24 pieces.

Roll into balls, put on oiled baking sheet and slightly flatten.

You can fork or toothpick to draw patterns. Love to do children)

Preheat the oven to 200 degrees. Once he warms up to - bake 10-12 minutes, no more! If you overdo - then it will be very hard! It is seen that the cookies will slightly increase in size)

Remove and let cool on the baking sheet. As the cooling of the biscuit hardens, but the inside remains soft.

Decorate as desired. I just powdered icing sugar cookie by itself is delicious! And the aroma - m-m-m))) All Bon appetit!
