RASPBERRY THUMBPRINT COOKIES
Raspberry-filled, fragile, buttery pecan-crusted cookies. They remind me of a miniature pie in flavor and looks. They are a delicious cookie any time of the year, but especially perfect for the holiday season. Other fillings can be used; any jelly, jam, candied fruit or tinted powdered sugar icing. Our family favorite is raspberry jam.

VERY EASY RASPBERRY THUMBPRINT COOKIES (USES COOKIE MIX)
These are a very easy thumbprint cookie to make as they use a packaged cookie mix. They look pretty around the Holidays. You can use green drizzle (made with the white chocolate chips in recipe with added green food coloring) with the raspberry jam & they look great or even use colored red or green sugar. You can also use apricot or any other flavor jam you desire in making these if raspberry not your thing. Got the recipe from Shoprite website and have been using it ever since.

Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh raspberries. If you don't have fresh raspberries, you can use frozen raspberries that have been thawed and drained.
- If you don't have a cookie press, you can use a spoon to drop the dough onto the baking sheet.
- Be sure to preheat your oven before baking the cookies. This will help them to cook evenly.
- Bake the cookies until the edges are just starting to brown. This will help to prevent them from becoming overcooked.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
