Instructions
In a mixing bowl, sieve the flour, salt and baking powder.
Add the cheese and mix.
Lastly add the butter, and mix through with your hands until you have manageable dough.
Roll small balls, gently put it in the muffin tins, and press a hole in the middle with the back of the wooden spoon.
Bake for 15 minutes at 200 degrees Celsius until it starts to change to a light golden colour.
Remove, let cool, and use an icing press to gently squeeze jam in the hole. Or you can use a teaspoon if you like to make a mess…
