Carol Gillespie tried this recipe from her sister-in-law and decided it was so delicious and easy to make that she would share it with our readers. A wonderful holiday treat!
Chocolate Thumbprint Cookies
1 cup very finely ground almonds
1(16oz) container of dark chocolate icing
4 tablespoons(1/2 square of margarine) at room temperature
2 &1/2 cups graham wafer crumbs
1/2 tsp pure almond extract
48 chocolate kiss candies
Either buy the almonds already ground or do it in a food processor yourself. Put them in a shallow dish and set aside.
Beat chocolate frosting and margarine in a large bowl with a hand mixer until well blended. Stir in graham wafer crumbs and almond extract. Shape chocolate mixture into 1 inch balls. Roll each ball in almonds to coat. Place balls on cookie sheet or something. Using your finger make a deep indentation into the center of each ball. Fill the indentations with a chocolate kiss. Refrigerate for 30 minutes or until cold.

Looks like a real Holiday treat Kellie- I must say she loves to bake. I “LOVE” almonds ! They are a real treat especially during this festive season and getting ready to begin the ’10 year. Have you ever made or had clodhoppers. My Mom makes them, and they are a snap to make + they are DELICIOUS!
