CHOCOLATE THUMBPRINT COOKIES
My group of friends had a weekly "movie night" during winters on Martha's Vineyard, and we'd take turns making a chocolate treat to share. These terrific cookies were an instant success. Once they debuted, I had to make them many more times. -Laura Bryant German, W. Warren, Massachusetts

TOM THUMB BARS
As a non-fan of coconut and walnuts, in general, I was surprised to find that I LOVE this cookie bar. My step grandmother introduced them to my family and ever since, they've been a staple cookie in the "special holiday collection." Super easy to make and they don't taste coconut-y or like walnuts Just so delicious!
