THUMBPRINTS
I used margarine in this recipe, I omitted the powdered sugar, I used
sugar free apricot preserves and I used Splenda and these cookies were very
yummy.
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
2 cups flour
12 tbs unsalted butter, softened
1/2 tsp vanilla
Powdered sugar, optional
Assorted jams
2/3 cup sugar
HEAT oven to 350 degrees. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
Whisk first 3 ingredients in a bowl. Beat butter, sugar and vanilla in a bowl
until light and fluffy. Add half of the dry ingredients and mix until combined,
then mix in the remaining dry ingredients. Knead a few times to bring the dough
together.
ROLL teaspoonfuls of dough into balls and place on baking sheets. Make an
indentation in the center of each ball with your thumb. Fill each indentation
with jam.
BAKE until the edges of the cookies are golden, 20 min. Let cool 2 min.
on the baking sheets, then transfer to cool completely. Dust with powdered
sugar, if desired, then serve.

"And the angel said unto them, "Fear not! For, behold, I bring you tidings of
great joy, Which shall be to all people. "For unto you is born this day in
the city of David A Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. And this shall be a sign
unto you: Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, Lying in
a manger.
--St. Luke ii. 10-12"
MERRY CHRISTMAS!
