Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare your baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt until combined, then set aside.
  3. Beat butter, granulated sugar, and powdered sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
  4. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well, followed by vanilla and almond extract until smooth.
  5. Gradually fold dry ingredients into wet mixture until just combined.
  6. Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough, flatten slightly, and create wells in half.
  7. Spoon strawberry jam into each well and cover with another flattened dough disc; seal edges with a fork.
  8. Bake cookies on the prepared sheets for 10-12 minutes until edges are golden.
  9. Cool cookies on sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to wire racks.
  10. Optionally drizzle cooled cookies with icing made from powdered sugar and milk.
