Time 43m

Yield 12-15 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup unsalted butter
1/4 cup white sugar
1 large egg yolk, seperated
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose white flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 chopped pecans
1 egg white
1/4 cup raspberry jam

Steps:

  • Mix everything, but jam,egg white,and nuts. Set them aside.Once dough is crumbly but will form a ball place into refrigerator covered for 1 hour.
  • After 1 hour preheat oven to 325.
  • Scoop dough with teaspoon,and roll into a ball, then into egg white,then nuts. Place each ball onto greased cookie sheet. Make a thumbprint most of the way through cookie, doing so very gently. If cookie cracks along edges,just pinch it back into shape. Bake 15-18 minutes, or look for a light golden brown. Take out of oven and cool at room temperature. Once cooled drop enough jam into cookie to fill indentation.
  • To truly please the eye,use different jam's.
  • You'll want to automatically make a double batch if you like thumbprint jam cookies, because these are soooooooo good.
