I always make these cookies for family gatherings, and they never last very long. They require a little extra effort, but they're worth it. —Marie Kinyon, Mason, Michigan

I have company coming spread out over about 7 days (some each day). Would it be okay to freeze this cookies & just bring out a few at a time. I REALLY want to make these. They look delicious. Thanks.

These cookies are my favorite & I've made them many times. I double the frosting recipe so as not to have to skimp with it. The only problem is it's hard to quit eating them!

BetteHolland Is this cookie supposed to be baked? The directions don't say but it has raw egg in it

Bette the last line of the directions says:Bake at 350° for 10-12 minutes. Cool on wire racks. Yield: 4 dozen.

These are a must-do on my Christmas cookie list! One year in a cookie-induced fog I rolled the dough around the cherry and topped with frosting and baked, instead of dropping the cherry in the thumbprint, frosting and baking. Equally yummy. this cookie stays chewy and moist, store between layers of waxed paper!

My cookies do not look good but that really taste good. I don't know what was wrong but they went flat and you can see the cherries. They look horrible but we will enjoy them. I will be embarassed taking them anywhere though.

I love these cookies! They are so good and always hit the spot. I agree with Aquarelle, DOUBLE the frosting recipe! Mnnn.... these are so so good. I have made them so many many times. They always turn out. I love the frosting. I could just eat it by its self. I might need to triple the icing recipe so I can have some left for the cookies!!!
