Greetings all. May I share with you my secret for Thumb Print Cookies? Use a plastic type wine cork to make the indentation for the filling. If you don't inbibe in wine, either ask a friend to save you some or the next time you dine in a restaurant that serves wine, ask for a cork or two. You'll be amazed at how quickly and evenly the cookies come out!
