Cherry Thumbprint Cookies - Not a Drive By

These cookies are colourful and easy to make. Of course you can use whatever jam you like. I have tried it with apricot and raspberry and it is all good.

Recipe: Cream one cup of butter w/ 1/2 cup of sugar. Add a teaspoon of vanilla and two egg yolks. Then add 2 cups of flour and 1/2 tsp salt. Roll the dough in to walnut sized balls and place on cookie sheet. Bake at 325 for a few minutes. Take out the cookie sheet and make an indentation with a tiny spoon - or your thumb - and put a dollop of jam in the center. Then continue to bake until done. They are absolutely delicious!
