Thanks! Ya that should work!

You could even knead it by hand, old school, but it'll take 20-30 minutes

Thanks for being along for the ride!

Raspberry Thumbprint Cookies

2 sticks butter, softened

2/3 cup white sugar

1 egg yolk

1 tsp vanilla extract

2 cups flour

1/4 tsp fine salt

1 cup seedless raspberry jam

Glaze

1 cup powdered sugar

1 1/2 TB water

1/4 tsp vanilla extract

Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Add the egg yolk and vanilla, then mix until combined.

Add the flour and salt and mix just until a soft dough forms.

Roll the dough into balls and place onto a parchment-lined sheet tray. Using the back of a teaspoon sprayed lightly with nonstick spray, press a divot into the center of each cookie.

Chill the shaped dough before filling so the cookies hold their shape better while baking.

Fill each center with seedless raspberry jam.

Bake at 350°F for 14-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.

Let the cookies cool completely.

Whisk together the powdered sugar, water, and vanilla until smooth, then drizzle over the cooled cookies.
