Butter Tart Thumbprint Cookies
There is never a bad time for cookies, am I right?
Winter, spring, summer, fall - there is different seasons for different types of cookies. I'm calling these cookies a winter cookie. Mainly because butter tarts seem to be a Christmas thing around our house so these make the perfect addition to the Christmas cookie list.

I believe I got 4 1/2ish dozen cookies (using my large cookie scoop), which is great if you need a bunch of cookies for a cookie exchange or gift giving. The recipe can easily be halved though!
Butter Tart Thumbprint Cookies
(Slightly altered from Food Meanderings)
Ingredients
Butter Tart Filling
3 Tbsp butter
2 tsp vanilla
1/4 cup whipping cream
1 1/2 cup brown sugar
2 eggs
2 tsp vinegar
2 tsp cornstarch
1/4 cup currants
Cookies
1 1/2 cup sugar
1 1/2 cup butter, room temp
6 eggs
1 1/2 cup ground pecans
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
pinch salt
5 cups flour
Directions
Prepare filling - In a medium pan over medium heat, stir together butter, vanilla, and cream. Stir until starting to steam. Remove from heat. In a small bowl, whisk together brown sugar and eggs.
Place pan back over medium-low heat. Whisk in the brown sugar and egg mixture. Then whisk in the vinegar and cornstarch. Keep whisking until thickened - about 10 - 15 minutes. Remove from heat once thickened and set aside to cool. (Can be placed in fridge to speed up cooling process)
While filling is cooling, prepare cookie dough.
Prepare cookie dough - In a large bowl, cream together the sugar and butter, scraping sides of bowl as needed. Add in eggs, beating after each addition.
In a separate bowl, stir together ground pecans, baking powder, salt, and flour. Mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until stiff dough forms. (Start by using a wooden spoon and then switch to your hands to make sure dry ingredients are fully incorporated.) Cover and chill dough for about an hour.
When dough and filling are chilled - Preheat oven to 350. Line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper, set aside. Scoop dough using a cookie scoop. (I use a large one for bigger cookies)
Place about 1 1/2 inches apart on prepared cookie tray. Roll the scoops into a ball and then press your thumb into the center of each ball to make an indent. (I use the back of a teaspoon so they are all even.)
Bake the cookies for 10 - 12 minutes, until bottoms are lightly browned. Remove from heat and gently repress the hole in the center of the cookie. Remove from cookie sheet to wire rack to cool for about 5 minutes.
Fill the indent with some of the filling and let cool completely.
If you run out of the butter tart filling you can use jam!
FYI - SORRY! I'm terrible for exact numbers of cookies because I tend to use my big scoop and then my little scoop so the numbers get skewed. I'm pretty sure I get 4 1/2 dozen big scoop cookies.
A few notes - these stay sticky because of the filling so are not really stack-able. These do freeze very well though. We like currants in our butter tarts but you could use raisins or even chopped pecans instead - or leave them out totally. If you can't find ground pecans then you can just grind pecan pieces in a blender or food processor until quite fine!
