Gluten-free Walnut Buttercream Thumbprints

These Gluten-Free Walnut Buttercream Thumbprints are the most requested cookie in our house all year long, not just Christmas time. The cookie base is not too sweet, so the addition of the walnuts that toast while they bake and the smooth vanilla buttercream balance everything out so nicely. Not only do these elements give these cookies an outstanding flavor, but a wonderful texture as well.

There really is nothing more Christmas-y than toasted nuts and sweet cookies. These cookies give you the best of both worlds all in one bite. I have no doubt that people will be asking you for the recipe once they try one of these beautiful creations; I know because it happens every year to me! The second best part about these cookies is that they’re extremely simple to make and only require a few ingredients that you have around the house. Simple and tasty - there’s nothing better.
