Tips:

  • Use high-quality white chocolate: The quality of the white chocolate you use will greatly affect the taste of the thumbprints. Look for white chocolate that is made with real cocoa butter and has a smooth, creamy texture.
  • Chill the dough: Chilling the dough before baking helps to prevent the thumbprints from spreading too much in the oven. If you are short on time, you can chill the dough for at least 30 minutes, but longer is better.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make it tough. Mix the dough just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a cookie scoop to make the dough balls: A cookie scoop will help you to make uniform dough balls that will bake evenly.
  • Press the thumbprints into the dough balls: Use your thumb or the back of a spoon to press a deep indentation into the center of each dough ball. This will help the thumbprints to hold the filling.
  • Bake the thumbprints until they are set: The thumbprints should be baked until they are set around the edges and the centers are no longer gooey. This will take about 10-12 minutes.
  • Let the thumbprints cool completely before filling them: Allow the thumbprints to cool completely before filling them. This will help to prevent the filling from melting.
  • Fill the thumbprints with your favorite filling: You can fill the thumbprints with a variety of fillings, such as melted chocolate, jam, or buttercream. Get creative and experiment with different flavors to find your favorite combination.

Conclusion:

White chocolate thumbprints are a delicious and easy-to-make cookie that is perfect for any occasion.
