These tasty cookies look so special and the cornmeal adds a wonderful sandy texture. I have found that using the same dough shaped as a round thumbprint cookie with the same tart cherry center is 90% as good looking - but soo much less work. One advantage of adding the jam after baking is that the intensity of the tart cherry flavor is not reduced as it is in baking.
I used the filling from this recipe and replaced the dough with one made of pistachio marzipan and chocolate. When they were done I dipped them in white chocolate. I also added 1/2 tsp of cornstarch instead of the sugar to the filling. the recipe is on The Mini Canteen Blog.
I'm looking for the Pecan version of this recipe. If anyone has it I would appreciate it . I need the recipe for the pecan filling.
Have made these cookies each Christmas for several years now. We all love them and they disappear from the cookie jar rapidly. This recipe is different and a keeper!
Make a double batch of these because they will go very fast. My family would be very upset if they didn't have these cookies each Christmas.
