With the holidays in full swing these days that means endless treats! These simple Raspberry Thumbprint Sugar Cookies add a simple twist to a ordinary sugar cookie and will look festive on your holiday table. The nice balance of the tart raspberry and the sugar cookie make the perfect bite each time and your guests will love them!

Best part thanks to Immaculate Baking they are super simple to make since their delicious gluten free sugar cookies are a box mix. They offer so many varieties of cookies, brownies and rolls, they are all a great healthy dessert recipe option.

If raspberry is not your thing you can substitute it for any jam, jelly or preserve you like. I went with raspberry since it was my middle sons favorite and its red for Christmas.

Ingredients:

1 box Immaculate Baking Company Gluten Free Sugar Cookie Mix
1 Stick (1/2 c.) butter
1 Egg
1 tablespoon water
1 tsp. gluten free vanilla extract
1 jar of Raspberry preserves or jelly (you could use a different kind of jelly if you prefer)

Directions:

Preheat your oven to 325 (for dark or non stick pans) otherwise 350
Combine the Immaculate Baking Company sugar cookies, softened butter, water, vanilla and egg into a bowl
Mix well
Drop 1 tablespoon of dough about 2 inches apart
With a wet thumb place a thumbprint in the middle of the cookie to create a well
Bake 12 – 15 mins
Once the cookies come out take a spoon to drop the well in the middle if it rose to high
Let the cookies completely cook – I had to soften mine off the pan a little before cooling completely
Once the cookies are cooled fill your well with the raspberry preserves
ENJOY!

There is nothing better than a good old fashioned Oreo but when you combine it inside a delicious homemade peanut butter cookie it turns it into something completely different! These Oreo Stuffed Peanut Butter Cookies have the perfect amount of peanut butter and chocolate flavor combo plus when you add the cream from inside the Oreo…YUUMM!!!

I love turning an ordinary dessert and transforming them into something even more delicious. They made for the perfect treat for our Father’s Day BBQ last weekend. They were such a huge hit with everyone and they are super filling since they are the size of a cupcake.

I’ll admit they did not last long in my house the first time we made them though, my kids loved them! They got to help stuff the Oreo stuffed Peanut Butter Cookies too with the Oreo cookie, so of course they enjoyed eating their handy work. I love working in the kitchen with them and making cookies is a fun afternoon activity especially now that the summer is here.

In my house there is a ton of baking during the Christmas season. I remember as a child my mom baking for weeks all of her favorite Christmas cookie recipes. I can still remember the smell of the house, to me that smell is Christmas. Now that she is gone I recreate her famous cookies but wanted to add a new one this year as sort of my own addition to the traditional mix that I make every year for my kids. I have found some delicious looking Christmas cookie recipes, I may have to try out more than one this year. Hopefully I can narrow it down and out it to a vote, I’m sure no one will complain to test out a bunch of different cookie recipes in my house.
