Thumb print cookies are the famous cookies of America , baked with vanilla and the thumb depression made is filled with any kind of jam . Originated in Sweden and known as Hallongrotta which means ” Swedish Cave ” . I saw this recipe and just fell in love with this easy and innovative way, like I never heard of cookies without baking . These cookies were amazingly tasty and nutritious too.
