When I was four, Mom and I would don our aprons and I would pretend we were bakers named Marge and Betty. Though we dropped that routine, we still make Christmas cookies together every year. -Rebecca Little, Park Ridge, Illinois

I'm not a huge fan of jam thumbprint cookies, but these were surprisingly good. The dough was soft and the jam filling was just the right amount of sweetness.

These cookies were a disappointment. The dough was too crumbly and the jam filling was too runny.

The dough was a little dry, but the cookies were still tasty. I think I'll add a little more butter next time.
