- 1 pouch (17.5 oz) Betty Crocker™ sugar cookie mix
- 1/2 cup butter, softened
- 4 oz (half of 8-oz package) cream cheese, softened
- 1 egg
- 3 tablespoons coarse white sparkling sugar

Clean off end of wooden spoon with paper towel as needed. Fill each opening with 1/4 teaspoon jam. Cool completely, about 1 hour.
