Thumbprint Fruit Cookies

[@i_am_blur]

What I remember from my childhood in the 70's are "spritz cookies"... kind of a very light, shortbread cookie that came in a tin, especially at Christmastime. I 100% remember one of the designs in the tin would always be a star (a kind sense f a star crossed with a flower) and they sure did have a drop of red jam in the middle of thar design! Fun memories! Thanks Miss Talli!

No Title?? Hey Girl. Yummy. 👍 love these, they are called Thumb print cookie.. shortbread with jelly. You ready for this 30 day vortex cold?? I’m am, as much as I can be. They expect power outages W-E right through and straight across country, which means all power plants be affected. Praying hard for no power outages, frozen pipes. I’m in Florida you know, but below 30 degrees and 0 temps could change things. 💕🙏💕. Stay Warm, Safe. 👍🥰. P. S. Since you making these cookies, send me some , so I don’t have to make them.. lol.

These are mandatory Christmas cookies with my family. My daughter makes these and she'll use her knuckle in order to make a rounder bowl for the jam. They are especially delicious with a Christmas Jam made with cranberries. ❤

Talli Faye you always bring a smile to my face. Thank you for walking us through the cookie making and tasting process and sharing your results. But you know what I'm most interested in now? How you make jam from leftover fruit salad. What kinds of fruits were in the salad and what is your process? Do you pick through it for certain fruits, or just use all of it? Inquiring minds want to know! Or maybe just me 😊

I will check on her recipe tomorrow to see what ingredients are in it. I use to make these at Christmas time, put red food color in half of the dough, then green in the other half. (using the gel coloring so the colors would be bright without changing the dough). I would put the dough into a cookie press and make green Christmas Trees and red wreaths, then press cinnamon red hot candies on the trees for ornaments, and also around the wreaths….lastly sprinkling them all with those multi colored tiny dot sprinkles…..then bake them. Those cookies and the cut out sugar cookies were what we left out for Santa Claus!! 🎄🥰🧑‍🎄😘

We didn’t get extra treats like the kids whose dads worked in the steel mills because my dad worked on the railroad and we lived from payday to payday (every 2 weeks), so Maurice Lenell Cookies WERE a HUGE treat for us!! He would also bring a boxed white refrigerated DRESSELS coconut cake!! They were SO GOOD, and, WHAT A TREAT!! Pepperidge Farm sells a cake that is similar…maybe they bought out DRESSELS?

Mrs Talli Faye, next time use powdered sugar, and I know the last time that I made them they had cornstarch in them not much. I’ll have to look the recipe up, but it is like shortbread, cause I’ve made the same cookies and put the same thing on top, but it was the drizzle. I filled the little hole up with icing and they came out really good. Maybe if you put your jams in after they’re cooked

Maybe try baking them first and then put the jam in the center for the last 1 min ...it might work better ??

It makes sense that the jelly cookies ran all over the place. Jelly is nothing but fruit juice and sugar.....when it got hot, it turned to liquid. The jam is more fruit than sugar, so it held it's shape better. That sounds like an old fashioned butter cookie dough....? Yes, I remember those cookies too.....we loved them also.

Dearest Friend, my family calls these butter, shortbread cookies, Danish jam cookies. My paternal Gmas family came from Denmark. I’ve never seen these cookies in a grocery store before, nor have I eaten anything like this from a grocery store so idk what they taste like I have filled mine with homemade lemon curd. I bake the cookies a bit first, remove from the oven. Then I use a spoon to press down the thumb print again. Then I add the jam, preserves or lemon curd and bake cookies for the rest of time or until done. The Danish butter cookies you can buy in the store in a tin can are Heaven ❤❤ and very authentic.
