How To Make shortbread thumbprint cookies
-
1Cream butter and sugar together. Beat in extract; slowly adding flour to the mix until the dough makes a ball. *You may refrigerate for about an hour if you wish but it is not needed.
-
2Form small 1 inch balls in your hand and set them on a baking pan lined with parchment paper.
-
3Use your thumb to stamp each ball. This will make a small indentation on the cookie to fill with your preserve. Add your preserve; making sure that it will not spill over when baking.
-
4Bake at 350 degree oven for about 14-16 mins.
-
5Cool and then drizzle with glaze.
