Cookie inspiration

Inspired by this post by Ms. Paulson of Posie Gets Cozy, I decided that Raspberry Thumbprints were a necessary Wednesday baking project. I found this recipe from Cooks.com, and went to work:

THUMB PRINT COOKIE

1/2 c. soft butter 1/4 c. brown sugar 1 egg yolk 1 c. sifted flour 1/4 tsp. salt 1/2 tsp. vanilla

Flour and salt were sifted together and added at the end. The fun part is rolling teaspoon sized balls of dough in sugar and then plunging chocolate bar pieces in the centers. I baked these at 350 degrees for about 10-11 minutes. Its the simplest recipe, but here's how things came out:
Deee-lish!
