1/2 cup sugar
2 large Land O Lakes® Eggs (yolks only)
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

FILLING

1/3 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1/4 cup Land O Lakes® Unsalted Butter
2 tablespoons Land O Lakes® Heavy Whipping Cream

Heat oven to 375ºF.
STEP 3
Shape dough into 1-inch balls. Place 2 inches apart onto ungreased cookie sheets. Make indentation in center of each cookie with thumb or end of wooden spoon handle. (Edges may crack slightly). Bake 7-10 minutes or until edges begin to brown. Cool completely.
