Home Bakers Challenge is a group initiative by started by Priya, in which a group of baking enthusiasts join hands and plan a set of recipes to be baked during the month. I recently joined the group and I am totally excited to be the part of this group. The month of July saw HBC's third challenge which was Cookies, hosted by Viji. Viji had given us a choice of four wonderful cookie recipes. Out of them I chose to bake the Strawberry Nutella thumbprint cookies. Now off to the recipe.

- AP flour : 1.5 cups
- Unsalted butter : 4 tbsp
- Baking powder : 1/2 tsp
- Salt : a pinch
- Granulated sugar : 7 tbsp
- Vanilla essence : 1 tsp
- Nutella/Strawberry jam : for filling
For Crushed strawberry mix :
- Strawberries : 7-8 nos.
- Milk : 1 tsp
- Red/ pink colour : 1 drop [optional]
Method :
- Crush the strawberries well using the back of a spoon/pestle with a tsp of milk. This forms a thick mixture weighing around 3-4 tbsp.
- Sift the AP flour, baking powder and salt ; keep aside.
- Cream butter and sugar. To this add vanilla extract and the crushed strawberry mix. Mix using a whisk.
- Fold in the flour gently to form a dough. The sticky dough can be covered with cling wrap and refrigerated now for about an hour.
- Preheat oven to 350F. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- Take out the refrigerated dough and grease your palms with oil. Divide the dough into equal balls for the cookies.
- Slightly flatten the balls placing them on the parchment paper.
- Using the thumb or a teaspoon, form an indentation in the middle of the cookies.
- Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes or till when the bottom starts browning.
- Take them out, flatten the dents again and let it cool on a wire rack.
- Fill the dents with nutella/strawberry jam once cooled.
