Directions Fig Thumbprint Cookies
Directions
-
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Mix flour, baking soda, and salt together in a bowl.
Beat sugar and butter with an electric mixer in a large bowl until fluffy. Beat eggs in, one at a time, until combined, stir in vanilla extract. Fold in flour mixture until well blended.
Combine figs, honey, cinnamon, and nutmeg together in a food processor, pulse until smooth. Stir in lemon juice until filling is slightly thinner than jam.
Shape dough into 1-inch balls, place on a non-stick baking sheet. Make thumbprints in batter with a wet finger. Spoon 1 teaspoon of filling into each thumbprint.
Bake in the preheated oven until edges are golden, 10 to 12 minutes. Cool on the baking sheet for 1 minute before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
