Raspberry Chocolate Thumbprints


Serves: 5
Total Calories: 721
Yield: 4 dozen cookies

Ingredients

2 sticks (1 cup) unsalted butter
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 egg yolk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 1/4 cups all purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/3 cup seedless raspberry preserves
1/3 cup milk chocolate chips

Directions:

1. Cream butter and sugar together. Add yolks and blend well. Stir in vanilla.
2. Sift together flour and baking powder.
3. Add flour mixture to butter mixture and stir until a soft and pliable dough forms.
4. Heat oven to 350 degrees F and line two cookie sheets with parchment paper.
5. Roll dough into 1-inch balls and place on cookie sheets. Make an indentation in the tops of cookies with the handle of a wooden spoon or with your thumb-this is the part your kids will love!
6. Bake for 5 minutes and remove from oven.
7. Fill each indentation with seedless raspberry preserves -- using a baby spoon works well for this.
8. Place cookies back in the oven for 10 minutes, or until they just start to brown.
9. Remove from oven and immediately drop 2 or 3 chocolate morsels on top of each cookie. Let cool completely.
10. When cookies are cooled, dust with powdered sugar.
