    Of the 12, these are my favorite

    Pamela Holcomb from Frederick, MD

    These cookies are really very good. They are easy to make and I had all the ingredients I needed to make them. I wouldn't change a thing about this recipe. Be sure to have all cracks in the dough sealed up when you put the thumbprint hole. I had jam run out of a couple of cookies when they baked and the cookies expanded and the jam temporarily liquified.

    Autumn favorite

    Mary Grubb from Chesapeake, VA

    My family loves these cookies, but my husband really likes it when I use apple butter instead of jam. If you like apple butter then this makes for a really great Autumn Favorite for the holidays!!!

    Yummy

    Penny Warrington from North Creek, NY

    I love these cookies! we bake these cookies every year at christmas. Instead of the vanilla we add almond extract which makes them so scrumtious. I also add powdered sugar to the top to make them look like snow. Everyone looks forward to these cookies in their goodie basket each year.
