Instructions:

2. In the bowl of an electric stand blender fitted with the oar connection, mix together margarine and sugar until joined (it will pause for a moment or two since the spread is cold). 
3. Blend in almond separate at that point include flour mix until blend meets up (it will take a touch of blending since the margarine is cold, so show restraint, it will appear to be truly dry and brittle from the outset).

5. Make a little space with thumb or index finger in every treat (sufficiently huge to fit 1/4 - 1/2 tsp of jam). Fill each with 1/4 - 1/2 tsp jam. 
6. Chill in cooler 20 minutes (or cooler for 10 minutes). Prepare in preheated stove 14 - 18 minutes. 
7. Cool a few minutes on preparing sheet at that point move to a wire rack to cool. 
8. For the coating: Whisk all coating fixings together in a little blending bowl, adding enough water to arrive at wanted consistency.
