Thumbprint Cookies

Directions

Roll into one inch balls
Dip into slightly beaten egg whites, foamed a little with a fork.

Dip the dough balls into egg whites, and then roll into finely chopped walnuts (any nuts work but Josephine says walnuts are best)

Place about 1 inch apart on an ungreased baking sheet
Bake 5 minutes at 375 degrees

Remove from oven and quickly press thumb into each cookie to make a small well.
Return to oven and bake 8 more minutes.

Cool

In the thumb prints put a little bit of raspberry jelly or jam. (Google thumbprint cookies and you'll find many more suggestions, including Limoncello, as you can see in the photo.)
