These classic Thumbprint Cookies are buttery shortbread cookies filled with a dollop of jam. Popular at Christmas, but they are pretty enough and delicious enough for any time of year.
What type of jam to use: You can you any jam you would like. We like to use Raspberry and Blackberry. And it doesn't matter if you choose seedless or not, they both work. One fun idea is to get one of those jam sampler sets and use a variety of jam flavors on your Thumbprint Cookies.
How to avoid cracks: Refrigerate the dough first and then use your hands to roll the cookie dough into a really smooth ball with no rough edges or cracks.
Storing/Freezing Instructions: These cookies taste best at room temperature and will stay fresh for 3-4 days if you keep them in an airtight container. No need to refrigerate them. You can freeze them for up to 3 months.
