Christmas is only five days away, and I have so many more
cookies I want to bake! I got started
last night with a recipe from my Grandma Jean for jewel thumbprint
cookies. These were always a holiday
staple in my house as a kid, but I have not made them in years. We always made them with red currant and
green apple mint jelly and they looked so festive. I didn't find any currant jelly (take note,
Whole Foods!), so I went with concord grape jelly. While they're not the classic red and green
for Christmas, these little jewels are just as delicious in purple! Thanks, mom, for sending the recipe!
