Day 5 Christmas Cookie – The Raspberry Thumbprint

Day 5 – The Raspberry Thumbprint   The Holiday tray of cookies wouldn’t be complete without this festive treat.   Belonging in the drop cookie category we make this with the basic building blocks of baking –  Flour, butter, sugar,  salt and vanilla.   We don’t add nuts in deference to our customers with allergies but instead add a dollop of raspberry preserves in the center.  The result is a satisfyingly rich cookie that has a splash of  Christmas color.
