These thumbprints were a bit too crumbly for my taste, but the flavor was still good.

I had some trouble getting the shortbread crust to hold together. I think I might have needed to chill it for longer before baking.

These thumbprints were a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think that's just personal preference. They were still very good and I would definitely make them again, but I would use less sugar in the glaze.

I love the combination of flavors in these thumbprints. The figs are sweet and chewy, the citrus glaze is tangy and bright, and the shortbread crust is buttery and crumbly. They're the perfect bite-sized treat.
