Notes

If your caramel is cold, use the warmth from your hand to warm up the preserves in the baggie before clipping the corner for a smooth drizzle. 
To Half this recipe you'll just half all of the ingredients and then bake the same way. The easiest way to half 3/4 cup of something is to measure 1/4 cup plus 1/8 cup. Smaller cookies will need to bake for slightly shorter.
