CHOCOLATE-CHERRY THUMBPRINT COOKIES
These look so pretty at Christmas on a tea table with other decorated cookies. They taste as good as they look, and they are eaten quickly wherever and whenever I take them. They're also ideal for Valentine's Day, and every other day of the year! -Stephanie Smith, Colorado Springs, Colorado
