Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees, with racks in upper and lower thirds. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat almond butter and butter on medium until smooth. Add brown sugar and beat until fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add egg and vanilla and beat until combined. With mixer on low, gradually add flour mixture and beat just until combined (dough will be slightly crumbly).
- Place granulated sugar in a small bowl. Roll level tablespoonfuls of dough into balls and gently roll in sugar to coat. Place on two parchment-lined rimmed baking sheets, 1 1/2 inches apart. Bake until cookies are puffed, 8 minutes. Remove sheets from oven and, with the bottom of a round 1/2 teaspoon measuring spoon, make an indentation in center of each cookie. Bake until set, 5 to 7 minutes. Let cookies cool on wire racks, 20 minutes. Stir jam and spoon 1/2 teaspoon into each indentation.

PERFECT THUMBPRINT COOKIES
My mother, Pauline, made really nice thumbprint cookies, but I never wrote down her recipe. I knew the ingredients, but unless you have the right proportions, you won't get that perfect melt-in-your-mouth texture. So, I did an image search and found a recipe that looked very similar, credited to a great-grandma named Mitzi. Since my last name is Mitzewich, that pretty much sealed the deal. In case you can't decide between a shortbread-focused cookie and a more jammy one, here's how to make both.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
- Mix butter and powdered sugar together with a rubber spatula until creamy. Add vanilla extract, almond extract, salt, and egg yolk. Mix with the spatula. Add flour and blend until just combined.
- Use a sorbet scoop to portion dough into 1/2-ounce (1-tablespoon) balls. Roll balls in a plate of white sugar to coat; roll again between your palms. Place several inches apart on a silicone-lined baking sheet. Flatten balls lightly with your fingers.
- To make shortbread cookies with a little jam, poke a well into each cookie using the end of a thick wooden spoon dusted with powdered sugar or using one of your fingers. Fill cookies with fruit jam. Tap baking sheet against the counter to let jam settle.
- Bake in the preheated oven until tops are barely blonde and bottoms are slightly golden, about 15 minutes. Let cool on a wire rack before icing.
- Meanwhile, mix powdered sugar with a little milk until you have a consistency that will hold its shape when piped. Pipe icing on top of cookies in a zigzag pattern. Let sit for 15 minutes before serving.
- For a more jam-forward cookie, press your thumb into the cookies to make large, shallow indentations. Spoon in jam. Tap baking sheet against the counter.
- Bake until not quite golden brown, about 15 minutes. Let rest on pan for 5 minutes before transferring a wire rack. Dust with powdered sugar.

- Add the butter and sugar to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Cream together on high speed until completely creamy and whipped, about 1-2 minutes. Reduce the speed of the mixer to medium low, and add the egg yolk. Allow the egg yolk to mix in completely before adding the vanilla extract. Once mixed, scrape down the sides and bottom of bowl as needed. Turn the mixer off, add the flour to the wet ingredients. Turn the mixer on low and slowly allow the flour to mix in and form a soft dough. Once the dough is completely mixed, place it in a container, press down, and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 2 1/2 hours. I prefer overnight (about 8 hours).
- Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat (the mats will cause less spreading). Shape the cookie dough into balls. I used 1 tablespoon dough per ball. Bake the balls for 3 minutes. Remove from oven and using the back of a small melon baller or your thumb make an indentation in the dough. Fill each thumbprint with 1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon of jam.
- Bake the shortbread cookies for 12-15 minutes or until very lightly browned on the edges. Mine took exactly 12 minutes on the dot. Do not over-bake. Allow cookies to cool for 30 minutes in total before glazing.
- In a small bowl, combine the confectioners sugar, half and half, and vanilla extract. You make need a little bit more liquid to get the desired consistency. Drizzle over the cookies or use a small baggie that's been snipped in the corner to drizzle. Glaze will take a few minutes to set.
