Coconut Jam Drops

125g butter, chopped, at room temperature 
2/3 cup caster sugar 
1 teaspoon vanilla essence 
1 egg yolk 
1 1/4 cups self-raising flour, sifted 
2/3 cup desiccated coconut 
Jam

Preheat oven to 180°C. Cream the butter, sugar and vanilla essence in a mixing bowl until pale and creamy. Add the egg yolk and mix well. Add the flour and coconut, and mix on low speed until just combined. Using a heaped teaspoon of mixture, roll into balls. Place onto greased baking trays, allowing room for spreading. Flatten slightly with a spatula. Using the end of round handled wooden spoon, make an indentation in the centre of each biscuit. Fill the hole with a 1/4 teaspoon of jam. Bake 1 tray at a time for 12-15 mins or until light golden. Stand for 5 minutes on tray before transferring to a wire rack to cool.
