Austrian Jam Cookies

What you need:

1 cup vegan margarine (I use Earth Balance)
1 cup sugar (I use Florida Crystals)
2 egg Ener-G egg replacers
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 1/2 cups flour, divided (I use organic unbleached white)
slivered almonds, as needed, optional
jam, as needed

What you do:

1. Preheat oven to 300 degrees F. Beat margerine, vegan sugar, egg replacers, and vanilla until smooth and creamy.
2. Stir in flour 1 cup at a time. Roll dough into balls. Roll balls into slivered almonds, if desired.
3. Thumb-print each ball and scoop a blob of jam into each cookie. Bake for 15-20 minutes (depending on how crispy you want the bottoms).
Cool and enjoy! Enjoy at tea-time or any time!
