This will be the nesting ground for your yummy preserves, so make sure you push deep enough into the dough. The name says it all! Forming an indent in the dough is easy, and using your thumb makes a cute heart shape! You can also alternatively use a small spoon to get the shape as well. Full disclosure, consider doubling the recipe! How to Make Thumbprint Cookies If you know me, you know I am no stranger to a heart-shaped cookie cutter (LOL) but the beauty of this recipe is you can achieve the cutest little hearts with your thumbs! These cookies are not only delicious, but are the perfect easy way to spread some love (I wouldn’t be mad if someone made me a batch). With Valentine’s Day approaching, I knew I wanted to get baking something special from the heart to share with my family and friends. These cookies deserve two BIG thumbs up! Perfect for Valentine’s Day or truly ANY occasion big or small.

I am a sucker for all things heart-shaped, and have fallen head over heels for these yummy Thumbprint Heart cookies filled with your favourite jam.
