Melt chocolate in top of double boiler over hot, not boiling water.
Remove from heat; cool. Cream butter and granulated sugar in large
bowl until blended. Add egg, vanilla, chocolate extract, baking soda,
salt, and melted chocolate, beat until light. Blend in flour to make
a stiff dough. Divide dough in half. Cover, refrigerate until firm.
Preheat oven to 350 F. Lightly grease cookies sheets or line with
parchment paper.

Roll out dough, half at a time, 1/8" thick between 2 sheets of
plastic wrap. Remove top sheet of plastic. If dough gets too soft and
sticks to plastic, refrigerate until firm. Cut dough into 1-1/2"
squares. Place half the squares 2" apart on prepared cookie sheets.
Place about 1/2 ts jam in center of each square;top with another
square.

Using fork, press edges of squares together to seal, then pierce
center of each square. Bake 10 minutes, or just until edges are
browned. Remove to wire racks to cool. Dust lightly with
confectioner's sugar.
