RASPBERRY ALMOND SHORTBREAD THUMBPRINTS

This is a great recipe I stumbled across on the inside of a Land O Lakes butter box! I remember thinking that it looked good but recipes inside boxes couldn't possibly be good. Boy was I wrong. This one gets more compliments. Be sure to use real butter and roll small balls as it will help your cookies look better. The prep time does not including cooking time or cooling time.

These cookies always turn out so well! Everyone is amazed that they were home-made and not from the local grocery stores. ( And they taste as good as they look!). No one can eat just one! I always get asked to bring these to special events. I hope you enjoy these as much as we do!
