Thumbprint cookies are actually called hallongrotta and are a Swedish pastry cookie. The name means “raspberry cave.” I didn’t know that until I started researching where thumbprint cookies originated. These are one of my favorite holiday cookies and they don’t necessarily have to be filled with raspberry! I’ve had them filled with several different fillings and each are always delicious. Sometimes they are called “jam drops.” Either way, they are always a beautiful addition to any holiday cookie platter. This time, I used Pampered Chef’s chocolate chip cookie mix and make them even better!
