Preheat oven to 175°C (350°F). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, cream together the softened Jersey butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
Beat in the egg yolk and vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, Jersey Royal potato flour, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
Roll the dough into 1-inch balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheets, leaving some space between each cookie.
Use your thumb or the back of a small spoon to make an indentation in the center of each cookie.
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown. Let cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, fill each thumbprint with a dollop of Jersey clotted cream and top with a small spoonful of Jersey raspberry jam.
Dust with icing sugar if desired before serving.

For best results, chill the dough for 30 minutes before rolling into balls. This will prevent the cookies from spreading too much during baking.
If you don't have potato flour, you can substitute with cornstarch, but the texture might be slightly different.
If your Jersey raspberry jam is too thick, gently warm it up to make it easier to spoon into the cookies.
Store the filled cookies in an airtight container in the refrigerator, as the clotted cream can spoil at room temperature. Consume within 2-3 days.
