ROSEMARY MARMALADE THUMBPRINT COOKIES



Rosemary Marmalade Thumbprint Cookies image

I think rosemary is my favorite herb, I love it on meats and in breads, but I had never tried it in a cookie.I believe this recipe came from our local paper. While I love marmalade, I actually made these with apricot jam for the first time last Spring,took them to a friend's house for a dinner and they disappeared very quickly. I...

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 c flour
1/2 c cornstarch
1 tsp snipped fresh rosemary
1/4 tsp salt
3/4 c butter, softened
1/3 c powdered sugar
a few drops of almond extract
1/4 c orange marmalade or apricot preserves
powdered sugar for sprinkling

Steps:

  • 1. In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, rosemary and salt. Set aside
  • 2. In a medium bowl, beat the butter for 30 seconds on medium high. Add powdered sugar & almond flavoring. Beat until combined.
  • 3. Add flour mixture, mixing well. The mix will be very dry, almost more like coarse crumbs. Pour this out onto the counter and gently knead until it comes together. Press into a small disc and refrigerate at least 1 hour.(dough is much easier to work with once chilled)
  • 4. Divide the dough into 24 individual pieces. Roll each piece into a ball about 1 1/4" in size.(be patient, the dough will form as it warms in your hand) Place these on a parchment-lined baking sheet, about 2" apart. Indent carefully with your thumb or finger. Spoon a scant 1/2 teaspoon of jam into the indentation.
  • 5. Bake at 325 for 14 minutes until lightly golden. Allow to cool slightly before moving to a rack as the cookies are fragile when warm.
  • 6. When completely cool, sprinkle with "just a pinch" of powdered sugar.

PERFECT THUMBPRINT COOKIES



Perfect Thumbprint Cookies image

My mother, Pauline, made really nice thumbprint cookies, but I never wrote down her recipe. I knew the ingredients, but unless you have the right proportions, you won't get that perfect melt-in-your-mouth texture. So, I did an image search and found a recipe that looked very similar, credited to a great-grandma named Mitzi. Since my last name is Mitzewich, that pretty much sealed the deal. In case you can't decide between a shortbread-focused cookie and a more jammy one, here's how to make both.

Time 50m

Yield 20

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 stick unsalted butter, at room temperature
⅓ cup unsifted powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
⅛ teaspoon almond extract
¼ teaspoon fine salt
1 large egg yolk
1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
⅓ cup white sugar, or as needed
½ cup fruit jam, divided
1 cup powdered sugar, or as needed
1 tablespoon milk, or as needed

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
  • Mix butter and powdered sugar together with a rubber spatula until creamy. Add vanilla extract, almond extract, salt, and egg yolk. Mix with the spatula. Add flour and blend until just combined.
  • Use a sorbet scoop to portion dough into 1/2-ounce (1-tablespoon) balls. Roll balls in a plate of white sugar to coat; roll again between your palms. Place several inches apart on a silicone-lined baking sheet. Flatten balls lightly with your fingers.
  • To make shortbread cookies with a little jam, poke a well into each cookie using the end of a thick wooden spoon dusted with powdered sugar or using one of your fingers. Fill cookies with fruit jam. Tap baking sheet against the counter to let jam settle.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until tops are barely blonde and bottoms are slightly golden, about 15 minutes. Let cool on a wire rack before icing.
  • Meanwhile, mix powdered sugar with a little milk until you have a consistency that will hold its shape when piped. Pipe icing on top of cookies in a zigzag pattern. Let sit for 15 minutes before serving.
  • For a more jam-forward cookie, press your thumb into the cookies to make large, shallow indentations. Spoon in jam. Tap baking sheet against the counter.
  • Bake until not quite golden brown, about 15 minutes. Let rest on pan for 5 minutes before transferring a wire rack. Dust with powdered sugar.

THUMBPRINT COOKIES

These cute little Thumbprint Cookies are easy to make with a dollop of your favorite jam! They're soft, chewy, and made with just 7 ingredients.

Categories     Dessert

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
1/2 cup (104g) sugar (plus 3-4 tbsp for rolling)
2 large egg yolks
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 cups (260g) all purpose flour
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup jam, any flavor

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats. Set aside.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together in a large mixer bowl on medium speed until light in color and fluffy. You should be able to see the change in color happen and know it's ready.
  • Add the egg yolks one at a time and mix until well combined after each.
  • Add the vanilla extract and mix until well combined.
  • Add the flour and salt and mix until the dough is just well combined. Do not over mix.
  • Create 1 1/2 tablespoon sized balls of cookie dough. Gently roll into a ball, then roll in additional sugar (if using), then set the balls on the baking sheet.
  • Use the end of a spatula, your thumb or the bottom of a measuring spoon to press the centers of the cookies down. Do this immediately after rolling them to help prevent the cookies from cracking.
  • Fill the centers with jam. I used roughly 1/2 teaspoon per cookie.
  • Bake cookies for 10-13 minutes or until the edges JUST begin to brown. You don't want to overbake them and have dry cookies.
  • Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5-10 minutes, then move to a cooling rack to finishing cooling.
