Photo: Chocolate Thumbprint Cookies Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 cup very finely ground almonds
- 1 (16-ounce) container dark chocolate frosting
- 4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) butter, at room temperature
- 2 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 1/2 teaspoon pure almond extract
- 48 chocolate kiss candies (recommended: Hershey's)
Directions
Pulse almonds in a food processor until very finely ground, like coarse sand. Pour ground almonds into a pie pan or other shallow bowl and set aside. Beat chocolate frosting and butter in large bowl with a hand mixer until well blended. Stir in graham cracker crumbs and almond extract. Shape chocolate mixture into 1-inch balls. Roll each ball in almonds to coat. Place balls on a cookie sheet. Using your finger, make a deep indentation in the center of each ball. Fill the indentations with chocolate kiss candies. Refrigerate for 30 minutes, or until cold.

Really enjoyed these! Great to make with the kids and doesn't require a lot of ingredients or baking. I'm wondering if the poor ratings were from people using cheap ingredients or not using all of them. Make sure to pulverize the crackers.

These are the most delicious, easy to make cookies ever. I bring them to work functions all the time and they are the first thing to go. The ingredients are always a little bit embarrassing to tell people (yes, it's a stick of butter and frosting, so just keep that under your hat. You will love these!

For being no bake cookies these turned out pretty good. I made 1 batch by the recipe, Then! I improvised on the 2nd batch. I added 1/2 cup of marshmallow cream and swirled it into the mix. And instead of rolling in almonds i rolled in graham cracker crumbs and cocoa powder. I topped them off with a chocolate kiss and a small broken piece of graham cracker. "Smore no bakes". It was a great base recipe to start with.. maybe next time add peanut butter and roll in peanuts? Or chopped up marchino cherries and shortbread cookie crumbs? The possibilities are endless!
