3. Add the egg/wet mixture, mix until combined.
4. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
5. Roll pieces of dough into about 1 inch balls and space them out on a cookie sheet.
6. Use your thumb, or an end of a wooden spoon, or a concave shaped measuring spoon to make an indentation to hold the filling. Make sure to not go too deep so the cookie will hold together.
