Directions
Split Seconds,This is an interesting dessert. I am not sure if you’d call them cookies, cakes or bars but they would be lovely with tea or coffee. They are delicious jam filled sweet treats. I found these in an old cook book and am not sure where the name comes in :),My mom’s friend, Maryann Fellows (nee Olsson), won a new kitchen from Pillsbury for developing this recipe and entering it into their contest in 1954. It says Robert as the entrant, but I’m sure back then she entered as Mrs. Robert Fellows. She was a native of Sweden who came to America in the late 1940s. Her original recipe calls for raspberry jam, but any jelly or preserve will be delicious I’m sure. We just always make it the way Mrs. Fellows did. I bet if she had access to lingonberry jam at the time, she might have considered using that as it is such a traditional Swedish flavor. These are so fast to make and fly off of the plate every time I cook them. Thank you Mrs. Fellows! We will always remember you for your delicious cookies.,These cookies are an old family recipe my Mom always made. The name comes from how simple & quick they are to make. She always made mountains of them for Christmas using strawberry jelly. She added a drizzle of icing (10X sugar mixed with a bit of vanilla) and then a sprinkle of chopped walnuts. With or without the extra topping and with ANY flavor of jam – these are GREAT!
