Cherry Pie Thumbprint Cookies
There’s nothing like the smell of freshly baked cookies, the scent wafts through the air and even finds teenagers who are burrowing under the covers in their rooms. Now that’s some powerful stuff!
The scent of freshly baked goods is one of the bonuses of the holiday season. Many times a week I’ll find myself baking up something during the weeks leading up to Christmas.
These Cherry Pie Thumbprint Cookies are one of my newest favorites. And I’m sure they will soon be your favorites too!
The tender shortbread type cookie is light and perfectly sweetened, add on top a small dollop of Cherry Pie Filling and a drizzle of chocolate! Perfection I tell ya!
Our entire family enjoyed these, without exception they are a tad fancier than the average cookie that I bake up. But without a doubt, these will be added into my holiday baking rotation.
They are fancy enough to impress but easy enough to whip out in a short amount of time. Making them just perfect for the holiday season.
Want to try a chocolate version? Here ya go!

This recipe looks so delicious! Hi, I’m Anita visiting from Freedom Fridays.
These look delicious! I cannot wait to make these today. Do you think coconut oil in place of the margarine would work?
Hi Karla, I’m not sure about using coconut oil, I do not have experience using it in baking.
Why do you use butter & margarine? Can you use all butter? Or butter & shortening?
Hi Robbie, This was a recipe we were asked to specifically replicate from Lucky Leaf Pie Filling, therefore all ingredients used were according to their instructions. Normally I never use margarine in my baking.
you do not specify what type of flour to use is it all-purpose or self-rising?
Unless it is specifically written to use another, we use all purpose in the majority of our recipes.
I plan on making these for my cookie swap. What is the approximate yield for each batch?
Hi Gail, This recipe yields two dozen cookies. Enjoy!
what am I doing wrong? they are hard to form into balls, very crumbly. I finally added a little cold water like I would to pie crust, and tossed with a fork.
