Strawberry Thumbprint Cookies

      My beloved little sister came up with this special recipe. It is so amazing! I cannot get enough of these sweet cookies. They literally taste like melt in your mouth sugar cookies. Everyone in my family loves them, and I'm sure you guys will too! They are gluten free {with the exception of the oats depending on your allergies}, sugar free, and vegan. Enjoy!
