Alright bakers, if you are looking for a refreshing cookie that is light, buttery, and pops with flavor, than these Raspberry Jam Thumbprint cookies are it!

During the summertime, I love to make these Raspberry Jam Thumbprint cookies with different jams, like a fresh strawberry or peach jam. For all those raspberry fans out there, these cookies will curb all those cravings you may be having. Lets get cooking bakers!

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Prepare two baking sheets by lining them with parchment paper.
  2. In a stand mixer, beat butter and sugar together until white and fluffy. Mix in the egg replacer, lemon zest, and vanilla.

  5. Bake for 15-17 minutes or until the edges are slightly golden. Remove from oven and cool on a wire rack.
  6. Serve or store in an airtight container on the counter for up to 1 week.
