"Deep indentation," presumably meaning your thumb??? I don't understand the deal with "thumbprint" cookies. Am I the only one nauseated by the idea that someone is sticking their thumb into something I'm meant to eat? How is the indentation of someone's thumb appetizing?

I usually use the back of the measuring spoon (1/2 tsp.)...then fill with 1/4 tsp. of whatever filling I'm using.
But yes, the idea behind "thumbprint" cookies is that you can use your thumb. No, it doesn't nauseate me.

Ah, okay, I never had these cookies before, I didn't realize there's a filling. I thought you just see someone's fingerprint on baked dough.

I use whatever filling I have...sometimes fruit (pie or jam), sometimes chocolate chips (then they melt during baking), sometimes caramel.

Leah, I'm totally with you on the thumb part being really unappetizing!!!
That's why I only eat my own.....
