Just 7 ingredients, and super easy to make - this raspberry thumbprint cookie recipe will be a favorite you'll make over and over.
Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Cream the butter and sugar together until pale and slightly fluffy.
Add the egg yolks, one at a time, beating in between each.
Add the vanilla extract.
While mixing, add the salt and flour gradually until well incorporated.
Using a small cookie scoop, scoop the dough into even sized balls and place on the baking sheets leaving space (about 2 inches) between each.
Using your thumb, make an indent into each cookie without pressing all the way to the bottom.
Spoon raspberry jam into each cookie.
Bake for 12-15 minutes. Cookies will be lightly browned underneath.
Remove from oven and cool for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
