Thumbprint Cookies Recipe

 

 

Here’s a recipe for a classic holiday cookie recipe:

 

What You Will Need:

–   1 cup of sugar

–   1 ½ cups of softened butter

–   1 tsp of vanilla extract

–   3 ½ cups of flour

–   ½ tsp of salt

–   the jelly of your choice (my family really likes raspberry)

 

What You Will Need to do:

1.   Preheat your oven to 350°F.

2.   In a bowl, cream the butter and sugar and stir in the vanilla extract.

3.   In a separate bowl, mix the flour and salt.

4.   Combine the flour mixture and the butter mixture until everything is mixed well.

5.   Take a walnut-sized piece of dough in one hand.  With the thumb of the other hand, gently knead it.

6.   Roll it into a ball and place on an ungreased cookie sheet.

7.   With your thumb, press a well in the center and fill with 1/2 teaspoon of jelly.

8.   Bake for 10-15 minutes, until the cookies turn golden brown.
