I'm not a big fan of shortbread cookies, but I really liked these. The almond flavor is really strong and it pairs well with the jam.

These raspberry almond shortbread thumbprints are delightful! The combination of sweet and tart is perfect, and the almond flavor adds a nice nutty touch. I also love the texture of the shortbread crust - it's crispy on the outside and soft and crumb
